Jennifer Nettles & John Glosson-How Great Thou Art chords
Start Jamming...
I want to focus on your voice is what I [Ab] want to do.
[Gm]
[Bb] [Eb] Last week was [Em] very fun, but this week is all about getting [C] to know my partners even more and what [E] really inspires them.
Let's talk about this week then.
I've chosen How Great Thou Art, [F] which I auditioned for you with and all that good stuff.
This song has always meant a lot to me growing up, but it's even more [Am] special because I found out that today is the day that my mom [Dm] found out she was pregnant with me.
The very next day, my mom and dad [Bb] lost their oldest son, he was eight years old, to leukemia.
She's like, you're not a replacement?
She said, but such a blessing.
[F]
Even in the worst times, [C] there is grace in sorrow.
Exactly.
To sing a song that's so [C] important to my family, to my heritage, [F] to what I had growing up, to be able [F] to sing it now for America [Eb] is something very, very, very special to me.
My [Ab]
Savior God, [Eb] to
[Ab] [Eb] Thee, how great [Bb] Thou art.
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb] You should have never told me this story!
[Am] You have to be vulnerable in a duet and be able to go to a certain place [C] musically and emotionally with the story that one is telling.
And so I trust my partners and want them [F] to be a part of it because this is going to be their win.
I just get the joy [G] of holding the [C] flashlight, as we say in Nashville.
John, though, you had [D] some ideas regarding [C] starting out the song a cappella, which I think is a genius idea.
[D] Both of us weren't [Ebm] really sure about an arrangement.
I [Bbm] don't want it to sound cheesy.
I don't want it to sound like a funeral.
I [C] thought it might be cool if it was sort of like tamed a little bit, just sort of, you know, just real beautiful.
She let me go for it and hopefully it'll [Bb] work.
[G] Mercy!
I tend to want to lead the phrase over and I [F] think you're wanting to stop and take a breath.
Either is [Fm] fine, we just need to make a decision.
Let's lead into it.
I mean, let's go over it.
Okay.
I liked that he was taking the reins.
That felt pretty [F] good for him.
Yeah, it's long.
[Eb] How long?
You can't rush Jesus!
[Bb] Oh my gosh, I'm so glad I'm on [Eb] Jennifer Nettles' team.
It sounds great.
It sounds [Fm] great.
This week I would like to dedicate this [C] song to my [Bb] parents and definitely [Eb] to, you know, a brother that one day I'll meet.
