Intro: Gm9 D (4x)
[Bm]Now I have nothing,[G] so God give me streng[D]th
[C#m7]'Cause I'm weak [C#m]in her [his] wak[F#m7]e
[C#m]And if I'm strong I might stil[F#m]l brea[F#7]k
[Bm]And I don't have an[A]ything to sha[G]re
[Bm]That I won't [E]throw away into the air[A]
[G]That song is sung [A]out
[G]This bell is rung[A] out
[Em][He] She was the[F#m] light that I'd [A]bless
[Em][He] She took my[F#m] last chance at happin[A]ess
[Gm7]So God give me streng[Bm]th, God g[Gm9]ive m[Em]e streng[D]th[G][Em][A]
(second verse same as first)
I can't hold onto [him] her, God give me strength
When the phone doesn't ring
And I'm lost in imagining
Everything that kind of love is worth
As I tumble back down to the earth
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
[He] She was the light that I'd bless
[He] She took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength,
[Gm9]God if [[Em]he'd] sh[D]e'd grant me [hi[G]s] her indulgenc[Em]e and decline
(E, f#, g#) Asus4 A Asus2
I might as well wipe [him] her from my memory
(E, f#, g#) Asus4 A Asus2
Fracture the spell as [he] she becomes my enemy
[Bm]Maybe I was wash[E]ed out like a li[A]p-print on his shirt
[Bm]See, I'm only hu[E]man, I w[A]ant him to hurt
[Asus4]I want [A]him, I w[A7]ant him to hurt
[instrumental - repeat structure of first verse, these last two lines are
picked up as you reach the end of the verse)]
Since I lost the power to pretend
That there could ever be a happy ending
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
[He] She was the light that I'd bless
[He] She took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength, God give me strength
[Gm] [D]
Wipe her from my life...
I might as well...
God give me strength...
God give me strength...
I might as well
