E                     B
 Daddy was a preacher
Daddy was a preacher
A
 The man I wanted to be

E                                 B          A
 No, he didn't wear a cape and he couldn't fly
But he was a hero to me

 Even heroes are human

           A
But there's one thing I always knew

C#m                                 B
 The whole time I was looking up to him

                     E  B A    E   B A
He was looking up to You, You, You
[Verse 2]

 Now I'm somebody's daddy

B     A
 I got two beautiful girls

E                                  B             A
 They look at me like they think I hung the moon
And I feel the weight of their world
C#m
 I don't know how to lead them

   A
So, lead my every move

C#m                                    B
'Cause I know those eyes looking up to me

                             E  B A    E   B A
That's why I'm looking up to You, You, You
[Chorus]
B                                    C#m
I don't wanna take a step unless You lead it

                                    A
Don't wanna speak a word unless You breathe it

                   E
God I'm looking up, keep me looking up

B                                   C#m
Looking up to the light I know will guide me

                         A
And I pray every day You find me
Find me looking up, always looking up [Verse 3]
E                                B A
 I've been working my whole life
To stand up on this stage
E                              B             A
 In front of a crowd under the bright lights
Yeah, but one thing has changed
C#m                                       A
 I used to dream of the day it was my name
That everybody knew
C#m                                 B
 Now I know that You led me here to leave 'em

E                B A    E   B A
Looking up to You, You, You
[Chorus]
B                                    C#m
I don't wanna take a step unless You lead it

                                    A
Don't wanna speak a word unless You breathe it

                   E
God I'm looking up, keep me looking up

B                                   C#m
Looking up to the light I know will guide me

                         A
And I pray every day You find me

                                         E    B A
Find me looking up, always looking up to you
[Post-Chorus]

   Keep me looking up, yeah
Always looking up
C#m                        A
   Lord, I'm looking up to You

                  E    A
I'm looking up to You
