Intro: Gm9 D (4x)
Bm G D
Now I have nothing, so God give me strength
C#m7 C#m F#m7
'Cause I'm weak in her [his] wake
C#m F#m F#7
And if I'm strong I might still break
Bm A G
And I don't have anything to share
Bm E A
That I won't throw away into the air
G A
That song is sung out
G A
This bell is rung out
Em F#m A
[He] She was the light that I'd bless
Em F#m A
[He] She took my last chance at happiness
Gm7 Bm Gm9 Em D G Em A
So God give me strength, God give me strength
(second verse same as first)
I can't hold onto [him] her, God give me strength
When the phone doesn't ring
And I'm lost in imagining
Everything that kind of love is worth
As I tumble back down to the earth
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
[He] She was the light that I'd bless
[He] She took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength,
Gm9 Em D G Em
God if [he'd] she'd grant me [his] her indulgence and decline
(E, F#, G#) Asus4 A Asus2
I might as well wipe [him] her from my memory
(E, F#, G#) Asus4 A Asus2
Fracture the spell as [he] she becomes my enemy
Bm E A
Maybe I was washed out like a lip-print on his shirt
Bm E A
See, I'm only human, I want him to hurt
Asus4 A A7
I want him, I want him to hurt
[instrumental - repeat structure of first verse, these last two lines are
picked up as you reach the end of the verse)]
Since I lost the power to pretend
That there could ever be a happy ending
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
[He] She was the light that I'd bless
[He] She took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength, God give me strength
Gm D
Wipe her from my life...
I might as well...
God give me strength...
God give me strength...
I might as well
