[Verse 1]

C                                
 The morning comes like an enemy 
Am/C    Asus4/C
soldier
C                          
 I feel the weight across my 
      Am/C    Asus4/C
shoulders
Am                             F
  I feel the shadows getting colder
               C    Am/C   Asus4/C
But that ain’t you
C                               
 This noose ain’t getting any 
Am/C    Asus4/C
looser
C                            Am/C
 I get so fearful about the 
    Asus4/C
future
Am             G           F
  I hear the shame of my accuser
               C    E7
But that ain’t you


[Chorus]

        F                          
I found strength, but it wasn’t 
           C
what I thought
        F                          
I found peace in the places I 
  C
forgot
        F                          
I found riches ain’t the things 
               E/G#
that I had bought
        Am                    G
I found out the day I lost myself 
was the day that I found God

[Verse 2]

C                          
 I get caught chasing my own 
     Am/C   Asus4/C
illusions
C                           Am/C 
 I get so lost in these 
   Asus4/C
confusions
Am           G             
 I keep on looking for my own 
     F
solutions
               C               E7
But that ain’t you, that ain’t you, 
no


[Chorus 2]

          F                      
My enemies weren’t the ones I had 
       C
fought
                F           
And my liberties weren’t the 
                      C
freedoms I had sought
       F                           
What I learned weren’t the lessons 
               E/G#
I’d been taught
        Am                   G
I found out the day I lost myself 
was the day that I found God

[Bridge]

Am                          F2
  Where is God out in the darkness
Am                                
  ’Cause the voices in my head 
            F2
ain’t talking honest
Am                                
 They’re saying maybe you made us 
G       F2
then forgot us
               C               E7
But that ain’t you, that ain’t you, 
no


[Chorus 3]

          F                        
And all I know is that I still 
             C
don’t know a lot
                    F              
I don’t know how it ends, I’m in 
                      C
the middle of this plot
                  F                
Yeah, and I found grace for the man
               E/G#
 that I am not
              Am                
Yeah, I found out the day I lost 
    G
myself
              Am                
Yeah, I found out the day I lost 
    G/B
myself
              Am                
Yeah, I found out the day I lost 
    G
myself was the day that I found God
