[Verse 1]
G
 Ever since I was ten
                 C
It was me and my friends

Playing touch football in the driveway
G
 Yeah we would pretend
                   C
It was ten seconds left

Super Bowl hail Mary on the last play
G
 So when that coach said
                   C
"You want a scholarship?"

I couldn't help but cry
G
 But after one year

And two surgeries
C                        N.C.
 It wasn't meant to be


[Chorus]
                   G
Turns out it was a good thing that it didn't work out
C
  'Cause I wouldn't be where I am right now
       G
It's a good thing God closed the door
   C
He wanted to give me so much more
       G
Than I ever thought I wanted
                      C
Turns out that he was only getting started
        G
Turning all my pain
            C
And all my broken dreams
Continues after the ad
       G
Into a good thing


[Verse 2]
G
 We were high school flames
                          C
I planned on changing her name

Having kids and a house down in Denver
G
 But along the way
                        C
Started taking separate ways

And we just couldn't make it better
G                            C
 I asked God what I did to deserve this
    G                                           C
But little did I know he was helping me grow so I could find my person


[Chorus]
         G
It was a good thing that it didn't work out
C
  'Cause I wouldn't be where I am right now
       G
It's a good thing God closed the door
   C
He wanted to give me so much more
       G
Than I ever thought I wanted
                      C
Turns out that he was only getting started
        G
Turning all my pain
           C
And all my broken dreams
       G            C
Into a good thing
          G           C
Oh into a good thing


[Bridge]
         G
I had to hang up my cleats,  and she broke my heart
       C
What I thought was the end was just the start
  G
I never got that job so picked up that guitar
         C
Moved to Tennessee to write some songs
         G
It was a good thing (it was a good thing,
          C
it was a good thing)
             G
Mmm it was a good thing (it was a good thing)
    C
Ooo yeah, yeah, yeah


[Chorus]
                   G
Turns out it was a good thing that it didn't work out
C
  'Cause I wouldn't be where I am right now
       G
It's a good thing God closed the door
   C
He wanted to give me so much more
       G
Than I ever wanted
                      C
Turns out that he was only getting started
        G
Turning all my pain
           C
And all my broken dreams
       G            C
Into a good thing
           G            C
Mmm into a good thing
