Preview (partial song; no chords displayed)
I’ve seen a lot of requests for “Smile” on various Christian message boards so I
thought I’d put it out there. We play this song in our church at both the Contemporary
Worship Service and Senior High Youth Service. I encourage music ministers out
there to incorporate more cutting edge music into your services. It is amazing
how God uses the energy of this type of music to engage the entire congregation
in worship.
For beginning guitarists, don’t be intimidated by the number of chords in this
song. Most of them are just derivatives of the previous chord and are not
difficult to play. Good luck and keep playing for the glory of God!
Note: The spacing between words is intentional. I made an effort to line up the
chords as close as possible with the words.
Chords (EADGBe) Fmaj7 (x03210) F/G (x03213) C/F (x33010) C/F (x32011)
Csus (x32011) D7 (x00212) D7/G (x00213) Am/G (x02213)
How far are you, how close am I
I know your words are true and I don't feel them inside
Still I believe you'll never leave
So where are you__ now_____
You're all I have, you're all I know
Your breath is breathing in my soul
Still I am gasping, aching, asking
Where are__ you now___________
(Chorus 1)
Cause I just wanna be with you__
I just want this waiting to be ov - er
I just want to be with you____
And it helps to know the day is getting closer__
Every minute takes an hour
Every inch feels like a mile
Til I won't have to imagine
And I finally get to see you smile_____
My journey's here, but my heart is there
So I dream and wait, and keep the faith, while you prepare
Our destiny, til you come back for me__
Oh, please_____ make it soon__________
(Chorus 2)
Cause I just wanna be with you__
I just want this waiting to be ov - er
I just want to be with you____
And it helps to know the day is getting closer__
Every minute takes an hour
Every inch feels like a mile
Til I won't have to imagine
And I finally get to see you smile________________
(Bridge)
I just wanna be with you
I just want this waiting to be over
I just want to be with you___
And it helps to know the day is getting closer
(Chorus 3)
I just wanna be with you__
I just want this waiting to be ov - er
I just want to be with you____
And it helps to know the day is getting closer__
Every minute takes an hour
Every inch feels like a mile
Til I won't have to imagine
And I finally get to see you
Every minute takes an hour
Every inch feels like a mile
Til I won't have to imagine
And I finally get to see you smile________________
