Chords for BeBE Winans at Arena Stage sings during a discussion "Born for This - The Bebe Winans Story"

_ [A] Ah, [B] turn it up a little bit, huh?
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ Why not [Bm] me? _
_ I asked [A] myself
_ _ Was the [D] song I sang [E] off-key?
_ [A] _ _
_ Hold back those [Bm] tears _
_ And convince [A] yourself
_ That it [Em] wasn't made to [A] be
[B] _ _ [D] Some wish upon a star and [A] hope
One day that [C#] wish comes true _
So I'm [F] asking God with [F#] much regard
Are the dreams I want _ [A] taboo?
_ [B] _ _ [A] Born for this [B] Destiny's fate
_ [A] Destined for [G#] greatness
Am I prepared for [C#] this?
Your [F#m] strength [C#m] for my [F#m] weakness
Found that [E] life's not always easy
[D] _ Question if [Bm] it's worth the risk
_ Follow your heart and it will lead [B] you
And yes, _ [G] [B] you are [A] born for [F#m] this _
[A] Now, _ I will not go
[Bm] _ Cause they told me no
[A] _ _ So there's nothing down [D] there for [E] me _
_ [A] _ But lying in my [Bm] bed
I can't [B] get it out of my [A] head
Am I where I'm [Em] supposed to [A] be? _
_ [D] Let the words control my [C#m] life
My pride I will [F#] defend
And if I work [F] hard, won't it take me [E] far?
But in the end, will I _ [Bm] _ [A] win?
[B] _ _
[A] Born for this
[B] _
Destined [A] for greatness
[G#m] Am I prepared [G#] _ for [C#] this?
Your strength [C#m] for [C#] my weakness
[F#m] I found that life's not [E] always easy
[D] Question if it's [Bm] worth the risk
But deep in my heart, [B] something whispered
Yes, [D] you were _ [A] born [A#m] for this
_ [C] Now if I stay [Gm] here and wait
[A] My dreams will die out
_ _ [F] _
Be [G] afraid to try [A] again
And try _ _ [Cm] [A#] again
If I [Cm] lose [A] my way
Because the [F#m] heart is torn
[Dm] I'm never left in question [F] why
The very reason I was
_ Born _ [G] for _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _
this
For greatness
[Bm] God kept [B] me straight
_ _ [E] Your strength for my weakness
[Am] I found that life's not [C] always easy
[F] Question if it's [Dm] worth the risk
[G] But deep inside, something whispered
[Cm] Yes, you were [G] _ born for [C] this
I'm born _ for [D] this
I'm destined [C] for greatness
[B] God kept me straight for this
[E] Your strength for my weakness
I [Am] know that life is [C] sometimes not easy
[F] And if I question if [Dm] it's worth the risk
[G] I'll reach down [C] inside and I'll [D] remember that
I was [C] _ _ born for this
I may [D] hurt sometimes
[C] But I'm born for _ [C] _ this
I'm [Fm] born _ _ [C] for _ _ this _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G#m] _ _ [B] _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Who hoped for a rest in that sleep?
I think _ _ that's what we're going to test
And I think what you're saying
In regards to the storyline is that
You need to know why you're here
And then you can [B] emphatically declare
[C#] I was born for this
_ _ [G#] What [Em] _
I realized through the [C] journey is that
Even when you know
[B] You're going to run into some storms
And some trials [D] _ and some rejection
And all those things that come [D#] along with life
And so even in those moments
I've [D] learned to stand still
And give it my [B] all
And cry [C] sometimes
I know this about my parents
Whenever I would cry, that ugly [C#] cry
It would [D#] always come to my rescue
And so I've learned God comes [B] to [C] my rescue
When I cry
And _ [G] through all that
[D#] I
