[INTRO]
D# A# F
[VERSE ONE]
D# A#
For a while there, it was rough
F Gm
But lately, I've been doin' better
D# A# F
Than the last four cold Decembers I recall
D# A#
And I see my family every month
F Gm
I found a girl my parents love
D# A# F
She'll come and stay the night, and I think I might have it all
D# A#
And I thank God every day
F Gm
For the girl He sent my way
D# A# F
But I know the things He gives me, He can take away
D# A#
And I hold you every night
Gm F D#
And that's a feeling I wanna get used to
Cm
But there's no man as terrified
F A#
as the man who stands to lose you
[PRE CHORUS]
A# F Gm D#
Oh, I hope I don't losе you
D# A# F
Please stay
Gm D#
I want you, I need you, oh, God
A# F
Don't take
F D#
Thеse beautiful things that I've got
[CHORUS]
A# Gm
Please stay
F D#
I want you, I need you, oh, God
A# Gm
Don't take
F D#
These beautiful things that I've got
[POST CHORUS]
D# A# Gm F
Oh, ooh
D# A# F
Please don't take—
[VERSE TWO]
D# A#
I found my mind, I'm feelin' sane
F Gm
It's been a while, but I'm finding my faith
D#
If everything's good and it's great,
A# F
why Do I sit and wait 'til it's gone?
D# A#
Oh, I'll tell ya, I know I've got enough
F Gm
I've got peace and I've got love
D# A# F
But I'm up at night thinkin' I just might lose it all
[CHORUS]
D# A# Gm F
Please stay
F D#
I want you, I need you, oh, God
A# Gm
Don't take
F D#
These beautiful things that I've got
[POST CHORUS]
A# Gm F
Oh, ooh
[OUTRO]
D# A# F
Please stay
D# A#
I want you, I need you, oh, God
A# F
I need
These beautiful things that I've got
