Just As I Am Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
You said come just as you [G]are
Skin and bones smell like a [Em]bar
You sure you want me there this [C]way
[D]Okay, well I'm on my [G]way[Em][D]
I'll grab this bottle just in [G]case
I'm just too ashamed to [Em]pray
Well I'm bringing this burden to you [C]now
Yea the prodigal son re[D]turns
The only way that I know [Em]how,
the only way that I know [D]how

[Chorus 1]
Gonna drive my [G]steel horse down to the alter
Put my [D]hands on the tank and pray
Lord I [Em]ain't got much to offer
And I ain't [C]tryin to die this way
So may this [G]bottle be the body
And this [D]bourbon be the blood
If I pour it [Em]out will you take my offering
Give me the [C]strength to never pick it up
Yea here I [D]stand, just as I [G]am

[Verse 2]
You know most folks don't under[G]stand
That I'm talkin bout pourin out my [Em]best friend
Damn, it sounds so sad,
but that's how it [C]is
And that's why it's gotta [D]end
Lord I've tried it by my[Em]self
Forget my pride, I need your [D]help

[Chorus 2]
Gonna drive my [G]steel horse down to the alter
Put my [D]hands on the tank and pray
Lord I [Em]ain't got much to offer
And I ain't [C]tryin to die this way
So may this [G]bottle be the body
And this [D]bourbon be the blood
If I pour it [Em]out will you take my offering
Give me the [C]strength to never pick it up
Yea here I [D]stand, just as I

[Interlude 1]
[C](am)[D][C][D]

[Bridge 1]
So [Em]fill that river full of tears and whiskey
[D]Blood I've spilled and the wars I've waged
A [Em]thousand loved lost heart broke memories
[D]Scars on the heart and the skin I'm wearin
[C]Raise me up, a [D]brand new man
So I can [Em]face this world, just [D]as I am

[Outro 1]
You said come just as you [G]are
Skin and bones and broken [Em]heart
You kept your word, and here I [C]stand,
Born a[D]gain, just as I [G]am
