Chords

I've been looking for the chords to this song and couldn't find any so I decided to make my own. I listened to the live session version of this song, which is a little different from the album version. Either way, you should be able to figure it out. The sus chords can be omitted, but I think they add to the song and help get that gospel sound in the beginning.

        Bb     Bbsus  Bb                  F    Fsus  F
 If you left me           How could I go on?

                Eb

 But I know your my calling to the promise land
Chorus:
Eb                       Gm       
 You're the one who runs through my veins

         F
 like a hurricane you lift the hurt I've felt before

Eb                 Gm
 You and me could own this earth

           F

         Bb

            Bb                             F

       Bb
 I am you, you are me

 Bb   Bb/A  Bb/Ab  Bb/G     C    D    Eb   F
-------------------------|-----------------------| For this part, when the Bb's start,
--3-----3-----3-----3----|-----------------------| you're just walking down the bass from
--3-----3-----3-----3----|--5----7----8----10----| Bb to G. I find it easier to use my first 
--3-----3-----3-----3----|--x----x----x----x-----| finger to bar the 3's and use my other
--x-----x-----x-----x----|--3----5----6----8-----| fingers to reach the bass notes.
--6-----5-----4-----3----|-----------------------| For the "...And say it again" part, that 
                                                   F is a full barre chord.

C 
  I will never leave you stranded

Eb
  Baby you're the one I need

Bb                    Bb/A         Bb/Ab        Bb/G
  You found me in the gutter I was lost now I believe

       C  D  Eb   F
  But let me keep you

  C   D      Eb    F      C    D     Eb   F
  Say you'll stay and    then you'll kiss me

  F / / / / / / / 
  And say it again
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 You've stolen the dark and turned it to stars
