[Intro]
C

[Verse 1]
  Am        F                        CIf I were You I would've given up on me by now
                        Am         FI would've labeled me a lost cause
                           C'Cause I feel just like a lost cause
  Am         F                              CIf I were You I would've turned around and walked away
                       Am           FI would've labeled me beyond repair
                        C'Cause I feel like I'm beyond repair

[Pre-Chorus]
           Am   G          F            COh, but somehow You don't see me like I do
  Am     G            FSomehow You're still here

[Chorus]
                    CYou're the God who stays
                    EmYou're the God who stays
                    FYou're the one who runs in my direction
          GWhen the whole world walks away
                     CYou're the God who stands
 G              AmWith wide open arms
                  F                            GAnd You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart
                  CFrom the God who stays

[Verse 2]
   Am         FI used to hide
                        CEvery time I thought I let You down
                          Am           FI always thought I had to earn my way
                           CBut I'm learning You don't work that way

[Pre-Chorus]
         Am     G         F            C'Cause somehow You don't see me like I do
 Am      G           FSomehow You're still here

                    FYou're the one who runs in my direction
           GWhen the whole world walks away
                     CYou're the God who stands (You're the God who stands)
 G              AmWith wide open arms (With wide open arms)
                   F                           GAnd You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart
