God Who Stays

By: Matthew West

Transpose:
VERSE 1
   Am        F                       C
If I were You I would've given up on me by now
                   	 Am        F
I would've labeled me a lost cause
                       	 C
Cause I feel just like a lost cause
  Am        F                               C
If I were You I would've turned around and walked away
                   		Am   	  F
I would've labeled me beyond repair
                   	  C
Cause I feel like I'm beyond repair
 
PRE-CHORUS  
     Am      G        F             C
But somehow You don't see me like I do
 Am      G          F
Somehow You're still here
 
CHORUS
                     C
You're the God who stays
                   C/E
You're the God who stays
                    F
You're the one who runs in my direction
          G
When the whole world walks away
                     C
You're the God who stands
      G        Am
With wide open arms
                 F
And You tell me nothing I have ever done
      G
can separate my heart
                   C
From the God who stays
 
VERSE 2
   Am         F
I used to hide
              	 	C
Every time I thought I let You down
                   	   Am        F
I always thought I had to earn my way
                       	   C
But I'm learning You don't work that way
 
BRIDGE
    Am   	              F
My shame can't separate - my guilt can’t separate
    C                         Dm
My past can't separate - I’m Yours forever
    Am                 	    F
My sin can't separate - my scars can’t separate
    C                             Dm
My failures can't separate - I’m Yours forever
   Am
No enemy can separate
    G
No power of hell can take away
     C/E
Your love for me will never change
     F
I'm Yours forever
