Verse 1
When my whole world re
G#m7 
volved a
F#sus 
round You like a planet
And I would trust You with my
life like You had planned it
And when I’d worship,
G#m7 
I’d unearth it
I
B/D# 
swear I could stay there for
hours
When losing myself was the
F#sus 
art
Chorus 1
Now I’m just tryna get back to the
heart of it
Leave behind the
G#m7 
madness and the
F#sus 
additives
And find that kid who sang about the
stars
And danced on the dark like
G#m7 
faith wasn’t
F#sus 
hard
I’m just tryna get back to the
G#m7 
start again
That feeling that I had you know, the
F#sus 
innocence
And cut out all the unimportant
parts
And hide in Your arms and
G#m7 
know who You
F#sus 
are
I’m just tryna get back to Your
(G#m7) 
heart
Turnaround

Verse 2
When writing songs was
G#m7 
just my
F#sus 
way to show af
B/D# 
fection
And they were only every
made for Your at
C#m7 
ten
F# 
tion
'Cause when I’d worship,
G#m7 
I would
F#sus 
word it
Like there’s
G#m7 
one in the
F# 
audience
charts
When losing myself was the
F#sus 
art
Chorus 2
But now I’m just tryna get back to the
heart of it
Leave behind the
G#m7 
madness that en
F#sus 
tangles it
And
B/D# 
keep on tryna sing about the
stars
And dance on the dark like faith isn’t
F#sus 
hard
I’m just tryna get back to the
G#m7 
start again
That feeling that I had you
know, when
F#sus 
faith began
And
B/D# 
how to light a fire without a
spark
Find joy in the dark, for
G#m7 
give when it’s
F#sus 
hard
Bridge
'Cause if I’m
honest
I’m done with almost
G#m7 
all of this but
F#sus 
You
All the
additives, the nonsense
You’re
G#m7 
all I ever
F#sus 
wanted
And
B/D# 
I’ll go all
in
Just rid me of the
G#m7 
parts that aren’t of
F#sus 
You
And for
give where I departed
You’re
G#m7 
all I ever
F#sus 
wanted
REPEAT BRIDGE
Tag
Lord, for
give where I departed
You’re
G#m7 
all I ever
F#sus 
wanted
F# 
Chorus 3
Now I’m just tryna get back to the
heart of it
I’m tryna get warmth back in my
F#sus 
daily bread
And sing with the infinity of
stars inside of Your arms
That know whose they
F#sus 
are
I’m just tryna get back to the
G#m7 
start again
But since I can’t go
back I might as
F#sus 
well advance
I’ll run into those everlasting
arms
You didn’t bring me this far to leave me in the
F#sus 
dark
Ending
So I’ll
B/D# 
find You on the other side of
hard
Though life left its mark through
wrinkles and
F#sus 
scars
F# 
I’m just tryna get back to Your
(B) 
heart
