Intro:
C D G , C D G , C D G C Em Am G D G C
G C Em Am
This and who I used to be
G D C G D G
Don't matter much at all to me.
G C Em Am
The pit you dug to plant your feet's
G D C G D G
a far cry from my destiny.
C
Not even the clouds,
G
Not even the past,
G C
Not even the hands of God
Em Am G D G
could hold me back from you.
C D G
G C Em Am
Dark and lonely is the ride
G D C G D G
the devil always by my side.
G C Em Am
Though no match for what lies between
G D
the thought of you
C G
your trust for me.
C
Not even the sun,
G
A bullet from a gun.
G C Em Am
No, nothing that this world could bring or
G D C G
Anything someone could do
C D G D G
Could hold me back from you.
C D G , C D G , C D G C Em Am G D G C
G C Em Am
No can of gold placed in my hand,
G D
the largest find
C G D G
with the greatest sum.
G C
Though some would say
Em Am
it'd ease our pain,
G D C G D G
We know that it can't be done.
C
Not even the sun,
G
Not even the clouds,
C
Not even the past
G C Em Am
No, nothing that this world could bring or
G D C G
Anything someone could do
C D G D G
Could hold me back from you,
C D G D G
Could hold me back from you,
C D G D G
Could hold me back from you.
