NEEDTOBREATHE - West Texas Wind

[Intro]

D G D A

[Verse 1]
D G D
It’s dark and it’s quiet in my house tonight
D A
Babies are all gone to sleep
D G D
It’s hard to imagine a better life
Bm A D
Than the one I get to lead
G G D
I had a glass of wine but my mind is clear
D A
These walls they talk to me
D G D
Don’t blink an eye, you’re a young man now
Bm A D
But you won’t always be

[Chorus]
Bm
My blood and my bones
G D
My heart and my hands
Bm A
They try to hold all of this in
D G D
But I’m running to you like a west Texas wind
Bm A G D
Singing God I need you, oh, how I need you
Bm A D
God I need you again

[Verse 2]
D G D
I’ve learned to hide my fear in my bones
D A
My body don’t shake like the kids
D G D
But I’m easily scared and often confused
Bm A D
I rarely know what I did
D G D
I’ve made mistakes and even worse than that
D A
I’ve hurt the ones that I love
D G D
I wish that peace would find me here
Bm A D
But it seldom ever does

[Chorus]
Bm
My blood and my bones
G D
My heart and my hands
Bm A
They try to hold all of this in
D G D
But I’m running to you like a west Texas wind
Bm A G D
Singing God I need you, oh, how I need you
Bm A D
God I need you again

[Bridge]
D G D
I’m in the shadows of Heaven and Earth
D A
Maybe they should be the same
D G D
But my Earthly body is bound and conflicted
Bm A D
And I’m left feeling the pain
D G D
This house is not our only home
D A
You can’t protect love with stone
D
God I know you can hear me
G D
So please come near me
Bm A G
I’m ready to let the world go

[Chorus]
Bm
My blood and my bones
G D
My heart and my hands
Bm A
They try to hold all of this in
D G D
But I’m running to you like a west Texas wind
Bm A G D
Singing God I need you, oh, how I need you
Bm A D
God I need you again
