Verse 1
G                       Am         F       G [3h0 on E]
If life is water, I was dry as the Tucson dirt
                       Am      F        G [3h0 on E]
If it's a gamble, I'd already lost my shirt
                         Am       F      G [3h0 on E]
If it's a journey, I was dazed without a clue
                             Am        F        G
I flipped a "U" back to the first love I ever knew

CHORUS
C                         G
You give me joy that's unspeakable
      D              Am
And I like it, and I like it yeah
C                       G
Your love for me is irresistible
        D                 Am
I can't fight it, I can't fight it yeah
C                         G
You carried the cross and took my shame
    D             Am
I believe it, I believe it yeah
C                        G
You shine your light of amazing grace
     D             Am
I receive it, I receive it yeah

Verse 2
G                       Am       F       G [3h0 on E]
If life's a battle, the invasion is complete
                         Am         F       G [3h0 on E]
If it's a rhythm, I have found the perfect beat
                            Am    F        G [3h0 on E]
If it's a renaissance, I've got a new birthday
                                Am          F       G
The world don't give it and the world can't take it away

CHORUS

Bridge:
G         C       G            D
Bowed and broken, everything's new
G          C                 G        D
All that I need, you're like water to seed
    G        C            G           D
And how your love, rights everything wrong
G     C
In my weakness
G
You're ever stronger, you're pulling me back
          D
Where I belong
