Chords

NOTE: Written by Kari Jobe, Benjamin Hastings, Bryan Fowler This song is in 3/4. I based this loosely on the acoustic version but these chords work for the studio version too. The E Major chords in the CHORUS and BRIDGE can be replaced with E(sus4) OR E(add11) for flavor. If you want to play it with G Major chord shapes hit the down arrow twice on the transpose button and then capo 2 to sound in A Major. If the chords are too dense or hard to play hit the simplify button on the left. [INTRO] | A | E | Bm7 | F#m7 | [VERSE 1]
    A                    E 
The only thing I want in life

   Bm7                    F#m7
Is to be known for loving Christ.

   A                             E  
To build His church, to love His bride,

    Bm7                 A/C#    D
And make His name known far and wide.

Regardless of joy or trial

     A                   E 
When agonizing questions rise

In Jesus all my hope abides.

[INSTRUMENTAL] | A | E | Bm7 | F#m7 | [VERSE 3]
   A                    E 
It is not fame that I desire

    Bm7                     F#m7
Nor stature in my brother’s eye.

  A                       E 
I pray it’s said about my life

             Bm7                A/C#      D
That I lived more to build Your name than mine.
