Tuning: Standard




Verse 1:
        Badd9                       G         D
I saw a man today, his whole world across his back 
         A          Badd9          G 
A living monument opposed to my success
           Badd9                    G                D 
I tried to look into his eyes as he shuffled past my car
              A                Badd9              G     
Sweat beading on his skin, his clothes and hair a mess.

       Em7                                     G
As the light turned green and I pulled away he slowly disappeared
       Em7                        G                   A
Just a memory of another chance I failed to show your love here


Chorus 1:
G            D                A                Badd9  A         G
   I want to love because you loved. I want to give because you gave.
          D                 A                    Badd9     A         G    D    A
I want to reach my hand out to the lost 'cause I know your hand will save-ave-ave
B9   A       G    D    A
Only you can save-ave-ave

Verse 2:
Badd9   G   D   A   B9  G  
I have to wonder if I really want to know 
The struggle and the pain that others feel
Do I want to hear the stories I see echoed in their eyes 
Or is this love I say that I'm reflecting even real?

Em7   G   Em7   G A
As the light turns on inside my head and I slowly disappear
I steel myself 'cause what You call for me is to show Your love here

Chorus 2:
I want to love because you loved. I want to give because you gave.
I want to reach my hand out to the lost 'cause I know your hand will save.
I want to love just like you loved I want to give just like you gave
I want to reach out with your hand 'cause only you can save-ave-ave
Only you can save-ave-ave

Bridge:
G                      A
    So, let me be your hands. 
G                    A
    Let me be your eyes.
G                    A
    You help me understand 
              G                                 A
That I'm your hands and feet hidden behind this frail human disguise


Chorus 3:
I want to love because you loved. I want to give because you gave.
I want to reach out with your hand 'cause I know Your hand will save
I want to love just like you loved I want to give just like you gave
I want to reach out with your hand 'cause only You can save-ave-ave

Only you can save-ave-ave

Outro
Only you can save yeah
Only you can save
Only you can save yeah
Only you can save
Only you can save
