    F              Am              Dm               C  
You threw away the ballast and you rowed your boat ashore 

       Gm               C
Didn't you, now? Didn't you? 

    F             Am        Dm       C
You made your ultimatum too big to ignore 

       Gm               C  
Didn't you, now? Didn't you? 

       Am                
So you worked out your excuses, 

        D 
turned away and shut the door. 

    Am
The world's too vast for us now, 

        D
and you wanted to explore 

       Em              C  
It's a long, long long road 

      Em                   C 
And I don't know which way to go 

       Em                             Dm           C      Bb
If you offered me your hand again I'd have to walk away 

       F              Am               Dm            C  
When I saw you at the street fair, you called out my name 

       Gm               C
Didn't you, now? Didn't you? 

    F                   Am            Dm           C  
You said we could start over, try and make it all okay. 

       Gm               C
Didn't you, now? Didn't you? 

       Am            
So our past has been rewritten 

        D
and you threw away the pen. 

      Am
You'd said that I was useless, 

               D
but now you'll take me in again 

     Em              C
Well Jesus loves me fine.

         Em                   C 
And your words fall flat this time. 

       Em                 Dm             C
Was it my imagination, or did I hear you say,

          Bb
"We don't have a prayer between us." 

 F             Am              Dm              C  
Didn't you believe that I have finally turned away? 

       Gm               C
Didn't you, now? Didn't you? 

 F           Am          Dm                 C  
Anything to hold onto to help me through my day. 

       Gm               C
Didn't you, now? Didn't you? 

Am             D
Jesus loves me fine.

        Am                   D
But his words fall flat this time. 

       Em              C
It's a long, long long road 

      Em                      C
And I don't know which way to go

       Em                             C 
If you offered me your world, did you think I'd really stay? 

       Em                              C  
If you offered me the heavens, I would have to turn away. 

       Em                 Dm             C
Was it my imagination, or did I hear you say, 

          Bb                      
"We don't have a prayer between us." 

  Bb                   Bb
Didn't you, now? Didn't you, now? 

       F
Didn't you?
