VERSE 1
Db 
Don’t know how I ever
Absus 
did it
Go a day without You
Bbm7 
in it
Guess You were and I just
Db/Gb 
missed it
Db 
For all the ways that life worked
Absus 
out
When I look back, man there’s no
Bbm7 
doubt
How lost I’d be right
Db/Gb 
now
CHORUS 1
If it wasn’t for
Db 
Jesus, God knows where I’d
Absus 
be
Still tryna find
Bbm7 
healing in all the wrong
Db/Gb 
things
Thinking I knew ‘bout
Db 
freedom with chains on my
Absus 
feet
All rhyme and no
Bbm7 
reason, all me and no
Db/Gb 
meaning
If it wasn’t for
(Db) 
(Jesus)

VERSE 2
Db 
Don’t know why You ever You ever
Absus 
did it
Trading places with a
Bbm7 
cynic
Gave Your life while I dis
Db/Gb

Absus 
doubts
You reached through hell, You brought me
Bbm7 
out
I doubt I’d still be here right
Db/Gb 
now
CHORUS 2
If it wasn’t for
Db

Absus

Still tryna find
Bbm7 
healing in all the wrong

Oh I remember the
Db 
feeling, without You it’s
Absus 
bleak

Your
Db 
love, Lord, since I found it
