[Bb] Tell me when.

[F] [Bb] [F]
[Bb] [Dm]
I [F] remember when I was 13, [Bb] I saw a picture on my TV [C] screen [F] of Reverend Billy Graham and
the people [Bb] singing Just As I Am, and it felt like you [Dm] were talking to me.
[F] And the whole world seemed to fade [Bb] away until I heard my mother [C] say, [F] son are you okay?
Do you want to pray?
[Bb] And that became the hour I first believed.
The next thing [F] you know, I'm [Bb] high as a kite [F] again.
The next thing you know, my heart is in [Bb] your hands.
[Dm] The next thing [F] you know, there's [Bb] no coming back [F] again.
The next thing you know, I'm a [Bb] friend.
[G] Well I wish I [F] could say I always stayed right [Bb] there, and I did until my freshman [F] year.
The world was pulling me a long way [Bb] from 13, and you were calling [F] but I didn't hear.
Still I knew there was something more, so [Bb] one day my knees hit the dorm [C] room floor.
[F] I said if you're there, and if you really care, [Bb] come and talk to me like I was 13.
The next [F] thing you know, I'm [Bb] high.
[F] The next thing you know, my heart is in [Bb] your hands.
[Dm] Oh, next thing [F] you know, there's [Bb] no coming back [F] again.

I [F] got a picture in my head today [Bb] of how heaven might look [F] someday.
I see the people there, so I pull up [Bb] a chair and the stories, they blow me [F] away.
Because I can see it on every [Bb] face, the evidence of grace.
And as I listen, it occurs to me, everybody's got their own 13.
[F] So [Bb] what's your story [F] about His glory?
You gotta [Bb] find your place [F] in the history of grace.
Yeah, [Dm] what's your story [F] about His glory?
Come on and find your place.
The next thing you know, every [Bb] night is a bitch.
