Promise of redemption – Trace those steps

Capo 5

Intro : G – Cadd 9 – Dsus4 - D
Verse1:
        G                  Cadd 9
Growing up never made much sense to me
    G                 Cadd 9
But dealing with this life I lead
G            Cadd 9
Making oh so many plans
     D/F#                   D
That never seem to come true in the end
    G                Cadd 9
And yeah I know that we were young
        G                             Cadd 9
But age doesn't mean much when you're truly in love
G                              Cadd 9
Hold on to that feeling that I always had
    D/F#                     D            G               Cadd 9
And hope that one day I will see you again
  G                        Cadd 9       G               Cadd 9
I know that one day I will see you again
              D/F#     D
And I'll keep ho------lding my breath


Refrain:
         G           Cadd 9        G              Cadd 9
So let's trace those steps back to where we first met
             G        Cadd 9            D/F#       D
A place I'll never forget cause you and I we can't let
         G       Cadd 9          Dsus4 4          D
All this space between a perfect you and perfect me 
             G          Cadd 9        D(ring)
It's just so hard to believe that you're gone 


Verse 2:
  G                   Cadd 9
I tried my luck at so many things
     G                           Cadd 9
I've seen enough joy to make you wanna sing
             G                     Cadd 9
I've hit the highest of highs, the lowest of lows
    D/F#                      D
But now I'm sick and tired of being alone
     G                        Cadd 9
As I trace those steps, the same very steps
     G                         Cadd 9
That lead up to the room where we once slept
              G          Cadd 9
I've got this pain in my chest
         D/F#                D              G               Cadd 9
Oh, this pain that's too deep to keep direct
             G        Cadd 9
So I'll keep ho------lding my breath 

Refrain:
         G           Cadd 9        G              Cadd 9
So let's trace those steps back to where we first met
             G        Cadd 9            D/F#       D
A place I'll never forget cause you and I we can't let
         G       Cadd 9          Dsus4 4          D
All this space between a perfect you and perfect me 
             G          Cadd 9        D(ring)
It's just so hard to believe that you're gone 
Bridge: 
G - Cadd 9 - Dsus 4 – D     x2

G     Cadd 9    Dsus4 4     D
Oh my God, this hurts like hell 
    G      Cadd 9        Dsus4 4          D
And how am I          supposed to tell myself
          G       Cadd 9     Dsus4 4      D
That if I keep on singing my way through this
          G    Cadd 9           Dsus4 4               D
That one  day,             I'll be fine
    G  Cadd 9                Dsus4 4           D
One day,                I'll be fine

Refrain:
         G           Cadd 9        G              Cadd 9
So let's trace those steps back to where we first met
             G        Cadd 9            D/F#       D
A place I'll never forget cause you and I we can't let
         G       Cadd 9          Dsus4 4          D
All this space between a perfect you and perfect me 
             G          Cadd 9        D (if you play the outro after the last chorus: Dsus 4 - G)  
It's just so hard to believe that you're gone           

Outro: 
         Cadd 9          G               D/F#          G
One good thing about the road is that it opens up your eyes
        Cadd 9             G        Dsus4 4          G
It will make you miss your home and everything that flies
        Cadd 9           G        D/F#            G
In your heart will be as clear as all of heaven's days 
           Cadd 9       Dsus 4(ring)               (D--G)
Cause I believe  you're not gone 

You're right here...
