C /// | Am/C /// | C /// | Am/C ///


Verse 1:
C                Am/C
 The morning comes like an enemy soldier
C                Am/C
 I feel the weight across my shoulders
Am               F
 I feel the shadows getting colder
        C  Am/C
But that ain’t you
C                Am/C
 This noose ain’t getting any looser
C              Am/C
 I get so fearful about the future
Am       G      F
 I hear the shame of my accuser
        C  E7
But that ain’t you

Chorus:
    F                   C
I found strength, but it wasn’t what I thought
    F              C
I found peace in the places I forgot
    F                     E/G#
I found riches ain’t the things that I had bought
    Am          G
I found out the day I lost myself

Was the day that I found God


Instrumental:

C /// | Am/C /// | C /// | Am/C ///


Verse 2:
C                Am/C
 I get caught chasing my own illusions
C              Am/C
 I get so lost in these confusions
Am      G         F
 I keep on looking for my own solutions
        C        E7
But that ain’t you, that ain’t you no


Chorus:
     F               C
My enemies weren’t the ones I had fought
        F                 C
And my liberties weren’t the freedoms I had sought
    F                     E/G#
What I learned weren’t the lessons I’d been taught
    Am          G
I found out the day I lost myself

Was the day that I found God


Instrumental:

F /// | C /// | F /// | C /// | F /// | E/G# /// | Am /// | G ///


Bridge:
Am             F2
 Where is God out in the darkness?
Am                      F2
 ’Cause the voices in my head ain’t talking honest
Am                G    F2
 They’re saying maybe you made us then forgot us
        C        E7
But that ain’t you, that ain’t you no


Chorus:
     F                   C
And all I know is that I still don’t know a lot
          F                  C
I don’t know how it ends, I’m in the middle of this plot
         F                E/G#
Yeah, and I found grace for the man that I am not
       Am          G
Yeah, I found out the day I lost myself
       Am          G/B
Yeah, I found out the day I lost myself
       Am          G
Yeah, I found out the day I lost myself
              C  Am/C
Was the day that I found God
