Start Jamming...
[C] [G] [B] All right, this is the current single we [C] have out right now and [F#m] Thank [C] you
[Dm] to [C] two members from the go-go's came to town to do a songwriting trip [Dm]
and
Spend a week songwriting with different folks in Nashville and a mutual friend of mine put me [C] together with him for a day
And in all honesty, I had no idea what we would [Dm] come up with.
I thought nothing and
we started a couple of different songs [C] and
[G#] I was trying to [N] figure out of a neat way to get out of the writing session because it wasn't [Dm] going anywhere and
Right at the last minute after a couple of [C] hours of tossing around ideas
Charlotte Caffrey suggested this [Dm] title but for the grace of God and I loved the title and started warbling the [C] chorus and Jane
Wheatland did [Gm] some lyrics and before we knew [C] we had the whole song finished.
[Dm] It's called but for the grace of God
[C]
[F] [C] I
Can hear the neighbors?
[F] They're [Gm] arguing [C] again
[Dm]
And [F] there hasn't been peace on our streets
[C] since who knows when
[F] [C] I
Don't mean to listen in [Dm] but the shouting is so loud.
I
[F] Turn up the radio
[C] To drown it out
[Dm] Sadly I [C] see
A [F] little prayer
[G] [Dm] For the grace of God
I'm a [C] stupid Lucky guy
Heaven [Dm] only knows how I've [F] been blessed with a gift [C] of your love
And I [Dm] look around and all I see is your [C] happiness
Embracing me Oh Lord, [Dm] I'd be lost
[F]
but for the grace of [C] God
Like [F] [C] to see that old man
[Dm] He's walking past down the [F] door
You have been told that he's rich
But it [C] seems so poor
Cuz [F] [C] no one comes to call him [Dm] and his phone never rings
He [F] wanders through his empty home
[C] Surrounded by his things
[Dm] Sadly I [C] say I [Fm] say a little prayer, you know, I [G] do
[Dm] for the grace of God
I'm a [C] stupid
Heaven [F] only knows how I've been blessed with a gift [C] of your love
And I [Dm] look around and all I see
Is your [C] happiness?
Embracing me [Dm] Oh Lord, I'd be lost
[Am] [F]
but for the [C] grace of God
Oh Oh Oh [Dm] Oh
[C]
And I look [Dm] around and all I see
Is your [C] happiness Embracing me
Oh Lord, [Dm] I'd be lost
[F]
But for the grace [C] of God
[Dm] Oh
[F] But for the grace of God
I'd be [C] lost
[D] [C] Thank you
[D]
