[Verse 1]
Ebmaj7                     Gm
      As I pen these things
Gm/D
Ebmaj7                                Gm
      It might literally be all I have
   Gm/D
Ink    on paper
Ebmaj7                 Gm
      Does any of this matter?
Gm/D
Ebmaj7
      Then I’m reminded of what I’ve seen
    Gm                    Gm/D          Gm7 F
The places I love and the people I’ve been

[Verse 2]
Ebmaj7               Gm                      Gm/D
Only Love could have brought me to this place
Ebmaj7                                        Gm
      Holding in me a joyful heart while spit covers my
Gm/D Ebmaj7
face Ah!

[Verse 3]
Gm                      Gm/D     Ebmaj7
  I’ve come to forgive    those      who’ve wronged me
        Gm             Gm/D             Ebmaj7
Knowing that they’ve helped make me into
            Gm    Gm/D           Ebmaj7
Exactly who You intended me to be

[Bridge]
Gm
Gm/D      Ebmaj7        Gm        F
    I’m trying my best  to be a better man

[Verse 4]
Ebmaj7                        Gm     F
      Despite all my fears, I really am
Ebmaj7                    Gm        F
      I’m trying my best  to be a better man
Ebmaj7                        Gm     F
      Despite all my fears, I really am

[Verse 5]
Ebmaj7                          Gm         Gm/D
      I write these things to remind myself
Ebmaj7
      That amidst this darkness,
Gm                   Gm/D
  there still remains
Ebmaj7 Gm   Gm/D                  Ebmaj7
Light, Hope,    and a perfect plan
                             Gm
For the first time in my life
  Gm/D Ebmaj7
I am   writing for the sake of writing
Gm                       Gm/D
Living for the sake of living
Ebmaj7
Loving for the sake of loving
           Gm  Gm/D
And I’ll live

[Outro]
Ebmaj7
      So you can call this sort of life a hopeless endeavor
Gm                  Gm/D                       Ebmaj7
  That this tiny vessel could ever endure such violent
weather
Call it pointless
          Gm                            Gm/D
I’ll continue to carry out Grace none the less
       Ebmaj7
I will scream it till my face is blue
                 Gm            Gm/D
There is a point to all of this    and its always been You
Ebmaj7 Gm Gm/D Bb/Eb
