Chords

Brandon plays this riff once for the intro, and then continues throughout the rest of the song, but not as audibly as during the first verse. If you prefer simpler chords, then using Dm, C, G, and Bb will do just fine.

[Verse 1]
Dmadd11                       Cadd9
Though I walk through the valley

                  G7/B
Though shadows fall

               Bbadd13
Your promise to me

                      Dmadd11
You are always holding on

                           Cadd9
And when the burden is heavy

                   G7/B
And my legs get weak

               Bbadd13
Your promise to me

                      Dmadd11
You are always holding on
[Pre-Chorus]
                               Cadd9
Your goodness is chasing me down

                               G7/B
Your goodness is chasing me down

                              Bbadd13
Your goodness is chasing me down

                              Dmadd11
Your goodness is chasing me down!
[Chorus]
                       Cadd9
When the night gets dark

                           G7/B
And when the fight gets long

                  Bbadd13
No I won't lose heart

                             Dmadd11
'Cause You are always holding on

                          Cadd9
And when the fear gets loud

                        G7/B
I'm gonna stand my ground

                      Bbadd13
And let love drown it out

                             Dmadd11
'Cause You are always holding on
[Verse 2]
                      Cadd9
I can stand in the fire

                          G7/B
You know I won't gеt burned

                           Bbadd13
'Cause with an army of angels

                       Dmadd11
You arе always holding on

                      Cadd9
And that devil's a liar

                 G7/B
And his time is up

                       Bbadd13
And at the end of my story

                      Dmadd11
You are always holding on
[Chorus]
                       Cadd9
When the night gets dark

                           G7/B
And when the fight gets long

                  Bbadd13
No I won't lose heart

                             Dmadd11
'Cause You are always holding on

                          Cadd9
And when the fear gets loud

                        G7/B
I'm gonna stand my ground

                      Bbadd13
And let love drown it out

                             Dmadd11
'Cause You are always holding on

And when the fight gets long

                  Bbadd13
No I won't lose heart

                             Dmadd11
'Cause You are always holding on
