C  G/B  Am  F


Verse 1:

C          G/B           Am       F
To anyone walking down a hard road
C              G/B              Am   F
Worn out with blisters on your feet
C                 G/B
To anyone with a heart that’s shattered
Am                  F
Doing your best to hold it together
C                 G/B               Am         F
With no prayer to pray and no song left to sing
C   G/B   Am                        F
             Whatever pain you’re dealing with

             Let me offer this


Chorus:

C                Am
Come however you are
                     F
Come with all your heartbreaks
                   Dm
Come with all the mistakes you’ve made
C                     Am
Lay them down at the cross
                  F
Give them to the God who loves you
                        G   Am   F
Hurt, scarred, falling apart
                  C
Come however you are

Verse 2:

C                G/B         Am   F
To the girl who never had a father
C               G/B                Am                F
To the guy who thinks he’ll never amount to much of anything
C                  G/B           Am          F
To those of us who feel unwanted, unneeded, unloved
C    G/B          Am      F
And desperately incomplete


[Repeat Chorus]  (on last line, replace C with G—leading into the Bridge)


Bridge:

G          Am
Come with your regrets
F
Come with the things you can’t change
G         Am                 F
Come with all your fears and all your shame with everything
G            Am               F
Come with the pieces of your bruised and broken heart
       Dm         F
Don’t wait; don’t wait

             Whatever pain you’re dealing with
C   G/B   Am         F
             Let me offer this
