Matthew West - God Who Stays Acoustic Chords

[Verse 1]
   Em           C                    G
If I were You I would've given up on me by now
                        Em            C
I would've labeled me a lost cause
                              G
'Cause I feel just like I’m a lost cause
 
[Verse 2]
    Em            C                         G
If I Were You I would've turned around and walked away
                      Em               C
I would've labeled me beyond repair
                       G
'Cause I feel like I'm beyond repair
 
[Pre-Chorus]
        Em      D         C             G
Oh, but somehow You don't see me like I do
 Em     D       C
Somehow You're still here
 
[Chorus]
                   G
You're the God who stays
                   G/B
You're the God who stays
                   C
You're the one who runs in my direction
                     D
When the whole world walks away
                   G
You're the God who stands
 
     D    Em
With wide open arms
                C                            D
And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart
                 G
From the God who stays
 
[Verse 3]
          Em
I used to hide
                       C       G
Every time I thought I let You down
                          Em             C
I always thought I had to earn my way
                           G
But I'm learning You don't work that way
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       Em      D         C             G
'Cause somehow You don't see me like I do
    Em  D            C
Somehow You're still here
 
[Chorus]
                   G
You're the God who stays (You're the God who stays)
                   G/B

                   C
You're the one who runs in my direction
 
               D
When the whole world walks away
                   G
You're the God who stands (You're the God who stands)
     D    Em
With wide open arms (With wide open arms)
                C                            D
And You tell me nothing I have ever done can separate my heart
                 G
From the God who stays
