Am Em G D Am
..If you would’ve blinked then I would‘ve looked away at the first glance

I would’ve stayed on my knees

And now that I know, I wish you left me wondering
Verse 2
D Em G D
..If you never touched me, I would‘ve gone along with the righteous
Em G D

But lord you made me feel important, and then you tried to erase us
