Artist: Sanctus Real
Album: Run

(Verse 1)
                D                                       A
I bow my head to pray, I don't know what to say
                     E                                     F#m
I'm not sure how to fix the things I'm dealing with
                 D                                    A
I'm in a desperate place, I need to share the weight
                  E                                  F#m
But I just don't know how, to let it all pour out
                    D                            A
Though I'm silent, my heart is crying
                      E                        F#m
Cause I was made to come to You



(Chorus 1)
         D   
So I pray
E                        F#m                            D
God I need You more than words can say
E                             F#m
Right here in this moment
         D                  
You know my heart, You know my need
   E                     F#m
You know every part of me
      Bm                                            D
So even if it's just to speak Your name
                    D      E
I'm gonna pray

(Verse 2)
                 D                                             A
I failed to find the time, but You've been calling out
               E                                  F#m
I let the days go by as if I could live without
                            D                              A
But it's gotta be here now, I won't be pulled away
                        E                                 F#m
Cause it's just You and I, so let the world around us fade

(Chorus 1)
          D         E
As I pray
                         F#m                             D
God I need You more than words can say
E                             F#m
Right here in this moment
          D
You know my heart, You know my need
   E                     F#m
You know every part of me
       Bm                                            D
So even if it's just to speak Your name

(Lead)
                  D       E
I'm gonna pray
                  D       E
I'm gonna pray

(Bridge)
     A
Father!
                        E/G#
Will You meet me here right now?
   F#m
Father!
         E
I surrender, lay it down
     A
Father!
                            E/G#
And every time I close my eyes
                  D/F#           E
I know that I was made
                                   D           E
To lift my hands and pray
                                D             E
I lift my hands and pray

(Chorus 2)
          D
You know my heart, You know my need
           E               F#m
And every single part of me
      Bm                                           D
So even if it's just to speak Your name
                  D          E
I'm gonna pray
                  D          E
I'm gonna pray

(Outro)
          D
You know my heart, You know my need
   A                       E/G#
You know every part of me
 D                                   
All the words, And all my life
 A                    E/G#         D
Take it as an offering
