Artist: MercyMe
Album: The Generous Mr. Lovewell
Chords by: Kurtis

This is definitely one of my favorite songs by MercyMe on this
album. It's very simple, but carries a really good message.
I probably didn't need to write out all the lyrics, but just to be 
thorough, they're here for you. I've put the standard chords above
the lyrics, although I think it sounds a little better with the barre 
chords, so those are here as well.

[Repeat chord progression to fade - for the most part]

Yeah and I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You,
Oh, I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide,
But I will, yes I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You
Oh yeah, I hit the ground runnin' back to You.

||: I hit the ground, crashin' down, rollin' round, but I rebound, 
I get back up and I'll be found, runnin', runnin' back to You :||

I'm runnin' back to You,
Back to You, back to You, back to You...
Runnin' back to you...
