I Bless Your Name (Selah)
Intro: C C F G C
C C F C F C
In prisoners' chains with bleeding stripes
C Am F G
Paul and Silas prayed that night
C F C * Am *(traditional walk down C to Am)
And in their pain began to sing
Am C F C F C
Their chains were loosed and they were free
C F C
I bless Your name, I bless Your name
C * Am F G *(walk up C to Am)
I give You honor, give You praise
C F C
You are the Life, the Truth, the Way
Am C F C
I bless Your name, I bless Your name
C C F C F C
Some midnight hour if you should find
C Am F G
You're in a prison in your mind
C F C * Am
Reach out and praise, defy those chains
Am C F C F C
And they will fall in Jesus' name
C F C
We bless Your name, we bless Your name
C * Am F G
We give You honor, give You praise
C F C
You are the Life, the Truth, the Way
Am C F C
We bless Your name, we bless Your name
C F C
You are the Life, the Truth, the Way
Am C F C
We bless Your name, we bless Your name
* C walk down Am C walk up Am

Note: The progression in the second line of both the verse and chorus goes: Am F G
If you are strumming this works OK.
But you can substitute a Bbmaj7 for the F
if you are finger picking or just to add a little flavor to the transition to the G.
