Verse 1:
	G (320003@1)      D (xx0232@1)I've given up, I'm giving up slowly,

	Em (022000@1)         D (xx0232@1)                   Am (x02210@1)  Em (022000@1) C (x32010@1)apart from this whole world that shares my fate
	G (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1)             C (x32010@1)This one last bullet you mention is my one last shot at redemption
	Em (022000@1)   D (xx0232@1)           Am (x02210@1)Em (022000@1)C (x32010@1)because I know to live you must give your life away

		   Em (022000@1)                C (x32010@1)           G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1)I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key

		    Am (x02210@1)		            C (x32010@1)And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, 
		      D (xx0232@1)promise I'm going because

Verse 2:
	G (320003@1)   D (xx0232@1)I'm giving up on doing this alone now
	C (x32010@1)Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how
	Em (022000@1)         D (xx0232@1)           Am (x02210@1)Em (022000@1)  C (x32010@1)He's told me the way and I'm trying to get there
	G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)And this life sentence that I'm serving
	C (x32010@1)I admit that I'm every bit deserving 
	Em (022000@1)    D (xx0232@1)          Am (x02210@1) Em (022000@1) C (x32010@1)But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair
