Gave My Life Away

When you finally give it all up, that's when you start to get it all

[Intro]
Gm                  Emb5          F     Db C
Gave my life   -- I gave my life away
1.
    Gm       F       C
Got tired of feeling dirty
    Gm            F      C
Got burned out on living sin
Gm          F         C                   Bb
Woke up one morning   wondering where I'd been
          C      Bb               C      Bb
But I was still alive   Yes I was still alive
     Gm                  Emb5         F      Db C
So I gave my life   -- I gave my life away
2.
           Gm       F      C
When I had drunk up all my money
             Gm   F          C
And paid for love out in the street
          Gm     F            C                           Bb
And after living through some scenes   I didn't want to repeat
      C      Bb           C      Bb
I was still alive   I was still alive
     Gm                  Emb5          F      Db C
So I gave my life   -- I gave my life away

3.
         Gm        F      C
I was surprised it was so easy
             Gm         F       C
There wasn't anything I had to do
  Gm     F            C                  Bb
I put my faith in the Father   to see me through
          C      Bb               C      Bb
And I was still alive   Yes I was still alive
           Gm                  Emb5          F      Db C
Although I gave my life   -- I gave my life away
[Bridge]
        Db         Eb            Db              Eb
I'm not asking for anything   He knows all my needs
      Db        Eb           Db      Eb
Gonna follow my spirit   Wherever it leads
    Db           C         Db          C
And thank the Creator   By word and by deeds
Db    Eb      F
   He gave me FREEDOM   (FREEDOM!)
4.
        Gm  F         C
Got no idea what will happen to me
           Gm      F           C
How I will live -- where I can go
      Gm      F     C                                  Bb
But I finally understand that   I don't really need to know
            C      Bb            C       Bb
Because I'm still alive   And at last I'm free
           Gm                         Emb5
Because he gave me life   And he just gave my life
                 F   Db  Eb  F
   right back to me
