INTRO
G C2 G C2 (use finger roll 6-2-4-3 on G = 320033 and 5-2-4-3 on C2 = x32033) G D C G 1. If I could have the world and all it owns C Em6 Am D7 A thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones Em C D7 G C D7 G If all the earth were mine to hold, with wealth my only goal G D C G I'd spend my gold on selfish things C Em6 Am7 D7 Without the love that your life brings Em Am7 D7 G C Am7 G Just a "little bit more" is all I'd need 'til life was torn from me.
CHORUS
C Bm Em D7 Em6 D7 I'd rather be in the palm of your hand C Am7 G Though rich or poor I may be. C Bm Em D7 Em6 D7 ? Faith can see right through the circumstance; A A7 D7 C D7 Sees the forest in spite of the trees. C Em6 Am7 G [CODA] Your grace provides for me. [BREAK] G D C G C Em6 Am D7 Em C D7 G C D7 G |...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...| G D C G 2. If I should walk the streets, no place to sleep, C Em6 Am7 D7 No faith in promises you keep. Em C D7 G C D7 G I'd have no way to buy my bread with a bottle for my bed. G D C G C Em6 Am7 D7 But if I trust the one who died for me, Who shed His blood to set me free Em Am7 D7 G C Am7 G If I live my life to trust in you, your grace will see me through.
