I've been putting on and putting off too many people
And I'm getting old to live like an injured man
Ailment and unfilled prescription like the nose on my face
Like a broken boat safety raft and a love for the water
And I just can't decide to sink or swim it's me or them
Should I save myself or go back for the others because
|C9 . . |C11 . . |C9 . . |C2 . . |(x)
Maybe there's no gray and I was wrong to tell 'em so
And maybe all that I've to do was done a long time ago

|G . . |G . . |Em7 . . |Em7 . . |
|D . . |D . . |C9 . . |C2 . . |
|C9 . . |D4 . . |
'Cause there was life before my life
There was provision before my need
There was redemption before my sin
For the sake of the world I thank the Lord
That the truth's not contingent on me
