B|1-1-1-1-|1-------|-1-1-1-1|-1-3-3-3| listen to the song, it kinda
G|-2-2-2-2|--2-2-2-|--------|--------| makes sense. :P

Verse 1:
Am F C Dm
Hold it all together, everybody needs you strong
Am
But life hits you out of nowhere and
F C Dm
barely leaves you holding on.
Am F C Dm
And when you're tired of fighting. Chained by your control.
Am F C G
There's freedom in surrender. Lay it down and let it go.
Chorus:
C G
So when you're on your knees and answers seem so far away
Am F
You're not alone, stop holding on and just be held
C G
Your worlds not falling apart, its falling into place
Am F
I'm on the throne, stop holding on and just be held
Am F C Dm (or play the piano part again)
Just be held x2
Verse 2:
Am F C Dm
If your eyes are on the storm, you'll wonder if I love you still
Am
But if your eyes are on the cross,
F C Dm
you'll know I always have and I always will
Am F C Dm
And not a tear is wasted. In time, you'll understand
Am F C G
I'm painting beauty with the ashes. Your life is in My hands
Chorus:
C G
So when you're on your knees and answers seem so far away
Am F
You're not alone, stop holding on and just be held
C G
Your worlds not falling apart, its falling into place
Am F
I'm on the throne, stop holding on and just be held
Am F C Dm (or piano)
Just be held x2
Bridge:
Dm Am C G
Lift your hands, lift your eyes, in the storm is where you'll find Me
Dm Am C G
And where you are, I'll hold your heart, I'll hold your heart
Dm Am
Come to Me, find your rest,
C G
In the arms of the God who won't let go
Chorus:
C G
So when you're on your knees and answers seem so far away
Am F
You're not alone, stop holding on and just be held
C G
Your worlds not falling apart, its falling into place
Am F
I'm on the throne, stop holding on and just be held
Am F C Dm (or piano)
Just be held x2
End on Am F C G
