_ _ _ _ [N] _ _ The introduction to this song is really short before the group comes in or the choir.
_ Your [Ab] left hand just hit an A flat, you can double up if you would like or just play one A flat. _
Right hand, instead of playing the octaves that they do on the CD, I just play these
[Eb] chords and _ _ _ _ [Db] lead in with the 5 to the 1. _ _
_ [Gb] _ _ Right hand is on an [A] inverted D flat chord, [Db] F, A flat, D flat [Ebm] to _ a G flat, B flat, E flat,
_ _ _ _ inverted D flat chord again, A flat, D flat, F.
_ _ _ [Gb] _
_ Then I go to a B flat, D flat, E flat and
a G flat.
[Ab] And this is all done in my right hand when my left hand hits the A flat.
_ [Db] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ Hit the A flat again and add the 5 to the 1 in the key of D flat.
I went [Gb] here, _ _ G flat, B flat, D flat, F or you could take it down here. _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Then you want to go to [Db] a _ D flat in your left and you're going to do a walk up there, _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] D
flat, E flat, [F] E, F, _ [Gb] _ F sharp. _
Right hand _ is [Db] going to play an _ _ inverted D flat chord, A flat, D flat, F.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ Again, [Db] notice
my left hand does the walk up [E] and _ [F] _ my right [Fm] hand is on that _ A [Db] flat, D flat, F. _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ _ Then my
right [F] hand goes to an A flat [Fm] chord, A flat, C, [Ab] E flat, add that B flat [Ebm] in there and that's
when your left hand hits the F.
So you can [Db] start it with, _ _ _ [Fm] _ notice when the change happens,
[Gb] _ _ then you go to a G flat in your left with a G flat, A flat, B flat and a D flat in your right.
_ _ I immediately take the D flat here and I put it down here. _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Gb] Then you do a walk down [Eb] which _ leads [F] you to the next breathe on me.
You'll go from the G flat to the F to the E to [Gb] the E flat.
_ [Eb] _ _ _ Then your right hand is going to play a D flat, G and a B flat. _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] Left hand is going to walk [Bb] up, _ _ [C] _ _ [Db] _ _ A flat, [B] B flat, B, [C] C, _ [Db] D flat.
Your right hand is going to go from that [Ab] A flat chord inverted, _ _ _ _ E flat, A flat, C to
[Gb] a D flat, G flat, B flat [Ab] to _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ a D flat chord in your right hand, D flat, F, A flat with
