Michael Mclean - Gentle Chords

[Verse 1]

C             Am                F                G
Like a gentle wind can blow the clouds from the sky,
C             Am                 F            G
Like a gentle touch can ease the pain of goodbye,
Dm            G              Am                    F
Like a gentle smile embraces empty souls in lonely places,
F                 G              C
We should be more gentle with ourselves.

[Verse 2]

C                   Am               F             G
Like the friend who gently builds us up when we're down,
C             Am                F          G
Like a gentle kiss can turn our world all around,
Dm                 G
We've been hurt by others often,
Am             F
We've forgiven and forgotten,
F                 G              C
We should be more gentle with ourselves.

[Bridge]

F           C
Life can be hard but
Dm          Am    F
we need not be so hard
      C
on ourselves,
  Cm       G
If we will see

[Verse 3]

C                 Am              F              G
Like the Shepherd leads his flock with gentle commands.
C               Am              F           G
With his gentle voice that only hearts understand.
Dm               G                        Am              F
One thing we can know for certain, He has borne the awful burden
F                 G              C
so we can be more gentle with ourselves.
