Closer To God

Intro:
H    C#   F#/A#  H

Verse:
    H                         C#      
I thought the more I cleaned myself up
    F#/A#             H
The more worthy I’d be
                         C#
I thought I had to draw near to Him
    F#/A#                H
For Him to draw back to me

Pre-Chorus:
             G#m          C#             F#/A#        H
But He’s the breath in my lungs when I’m gasping for air
          G#m       C#            F#/A#          H
He’s the friend listening, holding my desperate prayers

Chorus:
   F#
In every hour that felt too dark
   A#m
In every moment He felt far
      D#m
Every time I felt like He forgot
        H    
Didn’t know I was closer to God
   F#
In every valley, He walked with me
   F#/A#
He sealed my future, set me free
   D#m
In every place I felt lost
        H
Didn’t know I was closer to God

Verse 2:
           H               C#
‘Cause He leans into the brokenhearted
      F#/A#           H
The whisper in the storm
                      C#      
And looking back to where I started
    F#/A#               H
The path revealed Him more

Pre-Chorus:
          D#m         C#  F#/A#         H
He’s the tears in my eyes washing my soul
D#m             C#        F#/A#          H
And I had to lose it to know He’s in control

Chorus:
   F#
In every hour that felt too dark
   F#/A#
In every moment He felt far
      D#m
Every time I felt like He forgot
        H    
Didn’t know I was closer to God
   F#
In every valley, He walked with me
   F#/A#
He sealed my future, set me free
   D#m
In every place I felt lost
        H
Didn’t know I was closer to God   

Bridge:
G#m        C#       F#/A#             D#m
I had to lose hope……to finally stop runnin’
G#m             C          F#/A#                 H    
And I had to feel alone……to learn that I wasn’t

Chorus:
   F#
In every hour that felt too dark
   F#/A#
In every moment He felt far
      D#m
Every time I felt like He forgot
        H    
Didn’t know I was closer to God
   F#
In every valley, He walked with me
   F#/A#
He sealed my future, set me free
   D#m
In every place I felt lost
        H
Didn’t know I was closer to God

He’s the friend listening, holding my desperate prayers
