Verse 1
(A minor) Christ through faith (E minor)
I talked (A minor) to a cat (E minor) the other day
And he was (D minor) like;
"Man I really wanna (A minor) come to (D minor) Christ
(A minor) But I got (D minor) ta clean my life (A minor) up (E minor) first,
(A minor) get my sins (E minor) together"
(A minor) I told em,
I used to think that way too
I thought I (E minor) had to change myself
before I could come to Christ
(D minor) But Christ changed me
(A minor) Let me tell you (D minor) my story, (E minor)
it starts like this
It's (A minor) 5:46 in
Verse 2
the mornin',
tossin' and turnin'
Chest burnin', sermon (E minor) s in my
head keep reocurrin'
Havin' vision (A minor) s in my head of a kid
Cryin' at the feet of (E minor) the Father,
for all the wrong things that he did
Now I'm (A minor) sweatin' in my
sheets can't sleep
My mind keeps tellin' (E minor) me
I'm six (A minor) feet deep
Don't re (E minor) mind me,
(A minor) even though I'm still alive I can't tell
The way (E minor) I'm living my life I
feel I'm going to hell
(A minor) God they telling me I should accept you
That you had to leave the world, (E minor)
cause the world (A minor) left (E minor) you
Reason I can't change, (A minor)
like a mystery to me
So I make believe there (E minor) really
is a heaven for a G
Even though they (A minor) say you loved the world so much,
you shed ya blood
God (E minor) I feel I'm too
(A minor) messed up for love
They (E minor) tell me (A minor) come as I am
but I smell like smoke
My whole (E minor) lifes full of sin cause
it's all I know
(A minor) The bible told me that you
(F major) died (A minor) for my sins
(F major) (A minor) If I believe (E minor) in Christ,
it'll save me from the end
But I'm scared to ask (A minor) you,
to save me my heart
So evil, I got thought (E minor) s, that's
full of hatred hurtin' people
(A minor) I (E minor) thought at (A minor) first I had
to clean up my life
Now I'm hearin' (E minor) I just
need to cling to the light
I'm ready to do (A minor) it,
but Lord I pray you understand
My life is a mess, (E minor) will you take me as I am

Verse 3
Will you take me as I (A minor) am
I know the way I'm living is wrong

Verse 5
I'm sick and tired of trying to (A minor) me the man,
my daddy never taught me to be
I'm grown (E minor) up now,
life ain't what I thought it would be
I (A minor) made many mistakes in
my past I can't fix
Now I'm (E minor) staring at this
crusifix tatted on my wrist
Is (A minor) it true what they telling me,
am I just crazy
Did ya (E minor) bleed on the cross, (A minor)
(E minor) for my sins to save me
But (A minor) why would ya die for me
My whole life I've been work (E minor) ing for Satan,
while He fed lies to me
And now I'm (A minor) hearing too much,
trying to get a true touch
Of (E minor) a love that can change me,
I'm all screwed up
Figure (A minor) Hell is what I deserve
But your word says we (E minor) all fall (A minor) short
(E minor) so I guess we all outta (A minor) burn
Teach me I wanna learn
How you could save (E minor) a wretch like me,
before death says it's my turn
(A minor) I think I finally understand
No matter my past,
you'll (E minor) still (A minor) take me as (G major) I am
(A minor) Will you take me as I

Verse 8
My father had a few last words to give
I be telling people the reason to live
The reason to die,
united with the King in the sky
This life (E minor) is passing us by,
I got no reason to lie
You'll never (A minor) give the world enough,
they'll hunger for more
They fig (E minor) ure there ways are
nuthin to the wonderous lord
More secur (A minor) ity than the
man that left you
More (D minor) love than the mom
(A minor) s who kept you
He'll always (E minor) ac cept (A minor) you
Be everything your supposed to
Let Christ rule (E minor) ya heart, mind,
body and soul cause He chose you
(A minor) And if the world don't know you
It don't mat (E minor) ter you're Gods child
and he'll never disown (A minor) you
(E minor) Ya pur (A minor) pose on earth is
far from worthless
That's (E minor) why ya glori (A minor) fied like
ya (E minor) life's been purchased
(A minor) And it don't matter if the
world don't seen us
(D minor) We (A minor) still mean the (E minor) world to Jesus
Will you take me (A minor) as I

salavation that we got man (E minor)
