This Journey Is My Own Chords by Sara Groves

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [Gm] _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ When I stand before the Lord I'll be standing alone
This journey is my own _ _ Still I want man's advice
And I need man's approval But this journey is my own
[G] _
_ Why [C#] would I [D] want to live [G] for [D] man [Gm] And _ pay the [D] highest _ price?
[G] _ What [A] does it [D] mean to gain the [G] whole [D]
[Em] world _ Only to [A] lose my life? _
[D] _ And so much of [G] what I do [Gm] Is to make a [D] good impression
But this journey [G] is my [Gm] own
[D] _ And so much of what [G] I say [Gm] Is to [D] make myself look better
But this journey [G] is my own
[D]
[G] And why [A] would I [D] want to live [G] for man [Gm] And pay the [D] highest price?
[G] _ And what [A] does it [D] mean to gain the [G] whole [D]
[Em] world Only to [A] lose my _ life?
[D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Gm] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Gm] _ [Dm] _
[D] _ _ Oh-oh-oh-oh _ -oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
_ _ [G] _ [Gm] And [D] _
I've never felt relief Like I feel it right now
This journey is my own _
_ Cause trying to please the [G] world [D] It was breaking me down
It was breaking [G] me [Gm] down
[D] Now I live, now I breathe, [G] for an [E] audience of one.
[D] Now I live, now I breathe, for an audience [E] of one.
I know [D] I lived on every [G] floor and got [Gm] into one
[D] Because I know this journey [G] is my [Am] own
[G] _ And [A] why would I [D] want to live [G] for a man
[Gm] _ And pay the [D] highest price
[G] And [A] what does it [D] mean to gain [G] the whole [D] _
[Em] world
[G] Only to [A] lose my [D] life
[G] _ And [A] you can't [D] live for [G] someone [Gm] else
And it will only [D] bring you pain
[G] I _ [A] can't [D] even [F#] judge [Em] [D] myself
[Em] Only the [A] Lord can say _
[D] Well done _ _ _ _
