Keith Urban - But For The Grace Of God
From "Keith Urban" (1999)
(Charlotte Caffey, Keith Urban, Jane Weidlin)
INTRO: [Dm] [C] [Dm] [F] [C]
[C]I can hear the neighbors, they're [Dm]arguing again
[F]there hasn't been peace on our street since [C]who knows when
I don't mean to listen in but the [Dm]shouting is so loud
[F]I turn up the radio to [C]drown it out
[Dm]And silently I [Em7]say a [F]little prayer [G]
CHORUS:
But for the [Dm]grace of God go I
I must of been [C]born a lucky guy
Heaven only [Dm]knows how I've been [F]blessed
with the gift of your [C]love
I look [Dm]around and all I see
Is your happi[C]ness embracing me
Oh, lord I'd be [Dm]lost
[F]But for the grace of [C]God
[C]I can see that old man, he's [Dm]walking past our door
[F]I've been told that he's rich but he [C]seems so poor
[C]'cause no one comes to call on him and his [Dm]phone it never rings
[F]He wonders through his empty home [C]surrounded by his things
[Dm]And silently I [Em7]say a [F]little prayer (yes I [G]do)
CHORUS
INTRO
I look [Dm]around and all I see
Is your [C]happiness embracing me
Oh, lord I'd be [Dm]lost
[F]But for the grace of [C]God
Oh, lord I'd be [Dm]lost
[F]But for the grace of [C]God
