before I could come to Christ

the mornin',
tossin' and turnin'
G#m
Chest burnin', sermons in my
head keep reocurrin'
C#m
Havin' visions in my head of a kid
G#m
Cryin' at the feet of the Father,
for all the wrong things that he did

Now I'm sweatin' in my
sheets can't sleep
G#m
My mind keeps tellin' me

My whole lifes full of sin cause
