Without Running Away Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G]
[D]

[Verse 1]
I've [D]spent
some days looking
For a length of rope
And a [Bm]place to hang it
From the end of my hope
[D]Where I tho[G]ught hope had ended
I always find a little bit more
[D]

[Verse 2]
It's not like I'm trying
To be optimistic
If the truth [Bm]be told
I'd rather dismiss it
[D]And[G] be free of the burden
Of the living that hoping re[D]quires[A]

[Verse 3]
To [G]bring my [D]heart
To [Bm]every [G]day[A]
Run [Bm]the risk of [A]fearlessly [G]loving
Without [D]running away

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[D]Jesus is speaking
But it's so hard to hear
When dis[Bm]ciples with swords
Are cutting off ears
[G]Broken and bleeding
Waiting for healing to come
[D]

[Verse 5]
But wounded's a part
That I've learned to play well
Though the [Bm]wound may run deeper
Than I know how to tell
[D]Where [G]pain's an addiction
[D]That kee[G]ps me buried ali[D]ve
But when [G]it's all that I know
I'm afraid to leave it be[D]hind

[Verse 6]
[A]And [G]bring my [D]heart
To [Bm]every [D]day[A]
And run [Bm]the risk of [A]fearlessly [D]lov[G]ing
Without [D]running [Bm]away[D][G][D]
Ooh- [A]oh!

[Verse 7]
[Bm]My heart is not li[D]fted up
My eyes are not [A]lifted up
But [Bm]calm [D]and [G]quiet [D]is my sou[A]l
[D]Like [Bm]a child [D]with its [G]mother
[D]is my soul
[A]

[Verse 8]
After a [D]while in the dark
Your eyes will adjust
In the shadows you'll find
[Bm]The hand you can trust
[D]And the [G]still small voice
That calls like the rising [D]sun, [A]come

[Verse 9]
And [G]bring your [D]heart
To [Bm]every [A]day
[Bm]Run the risk of [A]fearlessly l[D]ov[G]ing
Without [D]running [Bm]away[A][D][G]
You must [Bm]run the risk of
[A]fearlessly [D]lov[G]ing
[D]Without running away

[Outro 1]
[D]
