Thousand Steps Capo 3

[Intro]
D Am G D   D Am G D

[Verse 1]
    D                      Am
With one eye open I saw her slowly start to stand
             G                      D
Her trembling hands wiped her tears away
   D                               Am
She looked so tired and broken, she never lifts her head
          G                                    D
She softly says I can't make it through another day

[Pre-Chorus]
      Bm            G      Bm       G
I'm as far away from God as I can be
        Bm           G              A
Is there any way that He still loves me? Can He still love me?

[Chorus]
               G        D       A             D
If there were a thousand steps between you and God
             G      D    A         D       A
And you could see no way across the great divide
         G   D    Bm         D      G
Just take one step toward His loving arms
              G       Em              D
And He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine

[Verse 2]
  D                               Am
He slips into the back door and he straightens up his tie
             G                        D
His bloodshot eyes tell of the night before
  D                               Am
He comes here every Sunday but his life is never changed
               G                                   D
He's played the game but he knows there's something more

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm               G        Bm       G
 I'm so close but still so far away
   Bm                G    A
And I can't live like this another day, not another day

[Chorus]
               G        D       A             D
If there were a thousand steps between you and God
             G      D    A         D       A
And you could see no way across the great divide
         G   D    Bm         D      G
Just take one step toward His loving arms
              G       Em              D
And He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
              G       Em              Bm D E G   Bm D E G
And He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine

[Bridge]
G                                                              D
Maybe you think that there’s a place you can go and He won’t be there
        A
He won’t even care
G                                                          D
Didn’t you know that there is no depth or height to keep us from
           A
His amazing love

[Outro]
               G        D       A             D
If there were a thousand steps between you and God
             G      D    A         D       A
And you could see no way across the great divide
         G   D    Bm         D      G
Just take one step toward His loving arms
              G       Em              D
And He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
              G       Em              Bm D E G   Bm D E G
And He'll take nine hundred and ninety-nine
