C 
We've met half a dozen times 
                                        Am 
I know your name I know you don't know mine 
         F              G 
But I won't hold that against you 

C 
You come here every Friday night 
                                  Am 
I take your order and try to be polite 
     F                          G 
And hide what I've been going through 

     F  Am         G          F 
If you looked me right in the eye 
       Am      G           F 
Would see the pain deep inside 
           G 
Would you take the time to 


C        
Tell me what I need to hear 
G 
Tell me that I'm not forgotten 
Am 
Show me there's a God 
 F 
Who can be more than all I've ever wanted 
C 
'Cause right now I need a little hope 
G 
I need to know that I'm not alone 
Am                                      F 
Maybe God is calling you tonight 
              Am 
To tell me something 
                    G 
That might save my life 



C 
I'm the pastor at your church 
                                            Am 
For all these years you've listened to my words 
         F                 G 
You think I know all the answers 


C 
But I've got doubts and questions too 
                                       Am 
Behind this smile I'm really just like you 
    F                    G 
Afraid and tired and insecure 

     F   Am         G          F 
If you looked me right in the eye 
       Am      G           F 
Would see the pain deep inside 
           G 
Would you take the time to 


C        
Tell me what I need to hear 
G 
Tell me that I'm not forgotten 
Am 
Show me there's a God 
 F 
Who can be more than all I've ever wanted 
C 
'Cause right now I need a little hope 
G 
I need to know that I'm not alone 
Am                                      F 
Maybe God is calling you tonight 
                        Am 
To tell me something 
                    G 
That might save my life 



(C  G, Am, F) 
Save my life 
C 
I am just like everyone 
                               Am 
Jesus I need You, I need Your Love 
    F        G 
To save my life 


C        
Tell me what I need to hear 
G 
Tell me that I'm not forgotten 
Am 
Show me there's a God 
 F 
Who can be more than all I've ever wanted 
C 
'Cause right now I need a little hope 
G 
I need to know that I'm not alone 
Am                                      F 
Maybe God is calling you tonight 
                        Am 
To tell me something 
                    G 
That might save my life
