Rich Mullins – Damascus Road (Guitar)

C                               F                      C
On the road to Damascus, I was hung on the ropes of success

           G                Am
When You stripped away the mask of life

           F                      G
They had placed upon the face of death

       Am
And I wanna thank You Lord

                               F              Ab
More than all of my words can say (I give my life)

           C    Am                 F     G
I give my life      to sing Your praise

     C                                            F                           C
And all those fortunes I hoarded,  They were the well from which my poverty sprang

         G                    Am
Oh they led me to no greater glory,

           F                      G
and they left me with no less shame

       Am
And I wanna thank You Lord

                               F              Ab
More than all of my words can say (I give my life)

           C    Am                 F     G
I give my life      to sing Your praise

  Ab                          C
I say I wanna give You glory Lord and I do

 Ab                                       Am7              G
But everything that I could ever find to offer comes from You

Am          F                       Am                Fmaj7
But if my darkness can praise Your light, You give me breath

                  C   Am                 F       G
And I'll give my life      to sing Your praise

C                               F                      C
On the road to Damascus, I was hung on the ropes of success

           G                Am
When You stripped away the mask of life

           F                      G
They had placed upon the face of death

       Am
And I wanna thank You Lord

                               F              Ab
More than all of my words can say (I give my life)
