Intro: G C G

G                C-G
No, I didn't see this one coming.
G             C-G
It suddenly snuck up on me.
G              C-G
I can't say you didn't tell me so
G              C-G
I can't say you didn't warn me

                  Em                          G
I can't take the pain of knowing that I left you.
                  Em                      G
I can't bear the shame of knowing I was wrong.
                    Em                        G
But, I'll take the blame for everything that I've done.
                  Em                   C
I can't take the pain of leaving you alone, of leaving
     G
you alone.

I was there when they accused you. But I guess I was too afraid. Not
just once, and not just twice, but three times I denied your name.

Em                       G
I never thought I'd get even a second chance.
Em                                 G
But you've given that and so much more.
Em                         G
And then for every time I ever did deny
Em                          D
You ask me if I love you, you know I do, Lord.

So I'm off to follow in your steps
It won't be easy, its safe to say
There are only two roads I can walk on down
The one less traveled is the one you paved

Lord, You took the pain even though I left you
And you took the shame and You made it all your own
Why'd You take the pain for everything that I've done?
Lord, you took the pain, you and you alone.
You and you alone.

I love this song. It Rocks! Have fun.
