intro
F#m4,7
B4
verse 1
E
take me as I am
C#m
I lay down all I thought I should be
A2
and I give up my walls of pride,
A2 - E
hoping love will find me
E
take me as I am
C#m
never wanted to need Your love,
A2
so alone and afraid to fall,
A2 - E
praying love will find me
chorus
E - A2 G#m6 - F#m4,7
And can it be- that You love me this way?
E - A2
You never ask me to be more than I could be
G#m6 - F#m4,7 C#m F#m4,7 - A2
No more trying to be someone, and can it be
C#m F#m4,7 - A2
yeah, and can it be
verse 2
E
Take me as I am
C#m
Never good enough to be loved,
A2
so I lived with my pain inside,
A2 - E
hoping love will find me
E
Take me as I am
C#m
So tired of trying to make it alone,
A2
so I'm taking this step of faith,
A2 E
trusting You will find me
repeat chorus
bridge
F#m4,7
In the mirror all I saw
G#m6
was that I never measured up
A2
I couldn't like myself, so
C#m
how could I understand Your love?
F#m4,7
I thought love was something bought-
G#m6
by being someone I was not
A2
how could I know all You'd
B4
ask is that I let You love me?
repeat chorus
(end on A2, precussion, and fade)
