  			Am7    G              C 
Everybody crashes down Sometimes 
Am7    G                 C 
Everything comes falling down Sometimes 
Am7    G              C 
I don’t even know how, 
           F9 
Or know why 

         G       Am7     F9 
The thing I can’t escape is You 
         G         Am7      F9 
The promise that You made is You will pull me through 
           G      Am7  F9 
You’re never far away no matter what I do 
        C                   G 
The thing I can’t escape is You 

     Am7    G             C 
At times I try to hide away From Your eyes 
     Am7         G              C 
At times I’m covered up in shame From my lies 
       Am7    G               C 
You sweep me into Your embrace 
         F9 
And I cry 

         G       Am7     F9 
The thing I can’t escape is You 
         G         Am7      F9 
The promise that You made is You will pull me through 
           G      Am7  F9 
You’re never far away no matter what I do 
        C                   G 
The thing I can’t escape is You
