(intro) Am G Am G

           Am                         G/A
I kept the right ones out and let the wrong ones in
       C                 C7                    F
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
           Fm/G#                       C/G
There were times in my life when I was goin' insane
               Dm/F#       F
Tryin' to walk through the pain
       Am                 G/A
When I lost my grip and I hit the floor
        C                         C7                   F
Yeah, I thought I could leave but couldn't get out the door
      Fm/G#                C/G
I was so sick and tired of livin' a lie
      D/F#                F
I was wishin' that I would die

       C Em            F                   Em              G
It's amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the light
       C Em           F                       Em               G
It's amazing when the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
       F Em          Dm                      G                  C       C  C/B
It's amazing and I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight

     Am                            D
That one last shot's a permanent vacation
    F                         C               C  C/B
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Am                          D
Life's a journey not a destination
      F                                  G
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings

            Am                        G/A
You have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk
      C                       C7                 F
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk
      Fm/G#                    C/G
I was out on the street, just tryin' to survive
D/F#                F
Scratchin' to stay alive

       C Em            F                   Em              G
It's amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the light
       C Em           F                       Em               G
It's amazing when the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
       F Em         Dm                      G                  C
It's amazing and I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight

C Dm
    Desperate hearts, desperate hearts
D Em
    Did you wanna see without and give it out now (or whatever...)
Em F
    Ow, oh yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah, ya ka kow, ya ka ka ka kow
