I Hold The Pen Chords

(ver. 1)
Joey & Rory
Intro
C  F  C  G  C

Verse 1
                    F                        G                 C
I hold the pen that writes the words, but He tells me what to say
                         F                       G                C
I touch the strings that make the chords, but he shows me what to play
                     F             G                   C
I pour my heart in - to my art and pray that it shines through
                     F                   G               C
And if it does, it?s just be - cause His hand is on it, too

Chorus
                C/E                F
I hold the pen,      He writes the song
              Gsus  G                      C     G
Every now and then,    the world sings a - long
              C       C/E                     F      D/F#
I may get the credit,      but they?ve got it wrong
           C    G                F     C
I hold the pen,    He writes the song

Verse 2
                            F                G                  C
All those roads I took that lead to love, or broke my heart in two
                              F                G                 C
He knew, later on, would in - spire the songs, I would write for you
                                    F
All those times I?ve known, when I     felt alone
    G                            C
And thought how could things get worse?
                       F                   G            C
He knew someday they?d find their way in - to this very verse

Chorus
                C/E                F
I hold the pen,      He writes the song
              Gsus  G                      C     G
Every now and then,    the world sings a - long
              C       C/E                     F      D/F#
I may get the credit,      but they?ve got it wrong
           C    G                Am   D
I hold the pen,    He writes the so ? ng
           C    G                F     C
I hold the pen,    He writes the song
