Intro: C  Fmaj  C  Fmaj7   x  2 
       
C Somewhere there's a stolen Fmaj7 halo 
I C used to watch her wear it Fmaj7 well 
C Everything would shine wherFmaj7ever she would go 
But C looking at her now you'd never Fmaj7 tell 
 
C Someone ran away with her Fmaj7 innocence 
A C memory she can't get out of her Fmaj7 head 
I can C only imagine what she's feeling 
When she's praying 
Am Kneeling at the G edge of her Fmaj7 bed 
 
And she says C take me aFmaj7way 
And take me C farther Fmaj7 
SurrCound me Fmaj7 now 
And C hold, hold, Fmaj7 hold me like holy C water Fmaj7 
Holy C  water F  
 
She C wants someone to call her Fmaj7 angel 
SomeCone to put the light back in her Fmaj7 eyes 
She's C looking through the faces 
The Fmaj7 unfamiliar places 
She Am needs someone to G hear her when she Fmaj7 crys 
 
And she says C take me aFmaj7way 
And take me C farther Fmaj7 
SurrCound me Fmaj7 now 
And C hold, hold, Fmaj7 hold me like holy C  water F  
 
Am She just needs a little help 
Fmaj7 To wash away the G pain she's felt 
Am She wants to feel the healing hands 
Fmaj7 Of someone who G understands 
 
And she says C take me aFmaj7way 
And take me C farther Fmaj7 
SurrC ound me Fmaj7 now  
And C hold, hold, hoFld me 
And she says C take me aFmaj7way 
And take me C farther Fmaj7 
SurrCound me Fmaj7 now 
And C hold, hold, Fmaj7 hold me like holy C water Fmaj7 
Holy C  water Fmaj7 
Holy C  water Fmaj7 - holy C water Fmaj7
