No capo, Standard tuning
[Verse 1]
A D A
I thought I did what's right
A D E
I thought I had the answers
A D E D
I thought I chose the surest road
Bm E
But that road brought me here
A D A
So I put up a fight
A D E
And told you how to help me
A D E D
Now just when I have given up
Bm E
The truth is coming clear
[Chorus 1]
A D Bm E
You know better than I
A D E
You know the way
A D Bm E
I've let go the need to know why
A D E A
For You know better than I
[Verse 2]
A D A
If this has been a test
A D E
I cannot see the reason
A D E D
But maybe knowing I don't know
Bm E
is part of getting through
A D A
I tried to do what's best
A D E
But faith has made it easy
A D E D
To see the best thing I can do
Bm E
Is to put my trust in You.
[Chorus 2]
A D Bm E
For, You know better than I
A D E
You know the way
A D Bm E
I've let go the need to know why
A D E A
For You know better than I
[Outro]
F C G D
I saw one cloud and thought it was the sky
F C G D
I saw a bird and thought that I could follow
F C G D
But it was You who taught that bird to fly
Bm
If I let You reach me
E?
Will You teach me?
(Repeat Chorus, change of key)
B? E? F#?
For, You know better than I
B? E? F#?
You know the way
D G Em A
I've let go the need to know why
F#? E F#? B? A?
I'll take what answers you supply
E? B?
You know better than I
