Words Written By Jamie Houston
Andy Goldmark
and James Dean Hicks

"I think Bryan plays it in F#. Can't say -
I play it in G; it's easier and much
easier to interpret. What a great song!
FEEL FREE TO CORRECT AT ANY TIME"
capo 1
strum
G
For all the times
D Am
I felt cheated
G
I complained
D C G
You know how I love to complain
G
For all the wrongs
D Am
I repeated
D
Though I was to blame
Am
I still cursed that rain
C
I didn't have a prayer,
D
Didn't have a clue
C D
Then out of the blue
D G
CHORUS: God gave me you
D
To show me what's real
C
When there's more to life
D
Than just how I feel
G
And all that I'm worth
D
Is right before my eyes
C
And all that I live for
D Dm
Though I didn't know why
G C D
Now I do
G
'Cause God gave me you
v2. (repeat pattern)
For all the times
I wore myself pity
Like a favorite shirt
All wrapped up in that hurt
For every glass I saw
I saw half empty
Now it overflows,
Like a river through my soul
For every doubt I had,
I'm finally free
And I truly believe
CHORUS
bridge:
D Am
In your arms I'm someone new
D Am
With every tender kiss from you
G
I must confess
C D
I've been blessed
CHORUS (raised)
D
God gave me you
A
To show me what's real
G
When there's more to life
A
Than just how I feel
D
And all that I'm worth
A
Is right before my eyes
G
And all that I live for
A
Thought I didn't know why
D A G
Now I do
D
'Cause God gave me you
strum in D.
