Just Showed Up For My Own Life
Sara Groves
[Intro]
Gm7 D Asus G D Asus Gm7 D Asus
[Verse]
G D A D/B
Spending my time sleep walking
G A D/B G
Moving my mouth but not saying a thing
A Bm
Hoping the changes would take
E/G# G D G A7
by working their way from the outside in
A D/B
I was in love with an idea
G A D/B G
Preoccupied with how a life should appear
A Bm
Spending my time at the surface
E/G# G D G A7
repairing the holes in the shiny veneer
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm A/C# D Gadd2
There are so many ways to hide
Bm A/C# D G
There are so many ways not to feel
Bm A/C# D Gadd2
There are so many ways to deny what is real
[Chorus]
Gm7 D A Gm7 D A
And I just showed up for my own life
Bm A/C# D
And I'm standing here taking it in
G D/A G A/G G
and it sure looks bright (?? not the first time through)
[Verse]
A D/B G
I'm going to live my life inspired
A D/B G
Look for the holy in the common place
A Bm
Open the windows and feel all
E/G# G D G A7
that's honest and real until I'm truly amazed
A D/B G
I'm going to feel all my emotions
A D/B G
I'm going to look you in the eyes
A Bm E/G#
I'm going to listen and hear until it's finally clear
G D G A7
and it changes our lives
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm A/C# D Gadd2
There are so many ways to hide
Bm A/C# D G
There are so many ways not to feel
Bm A/C# D Gadd2
There are so many ways to deny what is real
[Chorus]
Gm7 D A Gm7 D A
And I just showed up for my own life
Bm A/C# D
And I'm standing here taking it in
G D/A G A/G G
and it sure looks bright (?? not the first time through)
[Bridge]
E G D/F# A E
Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
G D/F# A Bm A/C# D G
Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
[Outro]
Bm A/C# D G Bm A/C# D G
