Dear God Tabulatur von Cory Asbury (für Baryton)

[Intro]
C



[Verse 1]
C
Dear God,
           Em                       F
I’ve been trying awful hard to make You proud of me
       C
But it seems
     Em                      F
The harder that I try the harder it becomes
                       C
And I feel like giving up
C           F
Most of the time



[Verse 2]
C
Dear God,
           Em                        Fadd9
I’ve been chasing their approval and it’s killing me
      C
And I know
     Em
The more I to try to prove
    Fadd9
The less I have to show
                     C
And I’m stuck inside my head
Em          Fadd9
Most of the time



[Pre-Chorus]
Am
If I pray a little harder
     G4
If I follow all the rules
  Am                     G
I wonder could I ever be enough



[Chorus]
C           Em
I try and I try
        Fadd9          C
Just to fall back down again
                  Em
And I ask myself why
     F                C
Do I try to chase the wind
         Am            G
I should lean into the mystery
      Fadd9              G
Maybe hope is found in a melody
     Am    G    Fadd9
So I wanna try again
      Am        G    Fadd9
Yeah, I’m gonna try again



[Verse 3]
  C
Dear child,
            Em                          Fadd9
I hope you know how much I love you and I’m proud of you
         C
Please believe
    Em                                 Fadd9
The thoughts I have for you will never change or fade away
                          C
When you felt like giving up
  Em            Fadd9
I was there all alone


[Pre-Chorus]
        Am
I’m not scared of imperfections
                 G
Or the questions in your head
               Am                    G
Just know that you have always been enough


[Chorus]
    C             Em
You tried and you tried
      Fadd9           C
And I saw you wrestle with
                 Em
Every how, every why...
      Fadd9       C
I was right there listening
        Am            G
So just fall into the mystery
     C
I’ll meet you in the melody
          Am          G    Fadd9
So please try just to try again
   Am              G   Fadd9
So child would you try again
   Am            G     C
My child you can love again



[Chorus]
    C             Em
You tried and you tried
      Fadd9           C
And I saw you wrestle with
                 Em
Every how, every why...
      Fadd9       C
I was right there listening
        Am            G
So just fall into the mystery
     C
I’ll meet you in the melody
          Am          G    Fadd9
So please try just to try again
   Am              G   Fadd9
So child would you try again
   Am            G     C
My child you can love again
