1 Verse:GDI could stand here and try to tell youEmI found my way here on my own, Cbrought to life this heart of stoneGDMade up my own mind Dto change my own lifeEmCWorkin' my own to good,C as if anybody couldDEmCBut the truth is, I've been broken since Cmy very first breathDEmCAnd the truth is I've been wanderin' since Cmy very first step
Chorus:GI know the only reason DI can stand here unashamedEmIs not because I'm worthy, Cit's all because of mercyGThere's no way that I could earn it, Dpraise God my debt is paidEmIt's not because I'm worthy, Cit's all because of mercy
