[Verse 1]
G Cadd9 G
The hardest thing I ever loved to do
C D G
Was letting go of everything I ever knew
G Cadd9
Nineteen years of dreams left in my room
Am D G
As I buttoned up the jacket of my suit
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9 G
The hardest word I’ve ever loved to say
C D G
Was goodbye to my mom and walk away
G Cadd9
Choking on my tie and on my tears
Am D G
As I walked down the hall into those years
[Bridge 1]
F Cadd9 G
The sweetest song I’ve ever loved to sing
F Cadd9 D
Filled the MTC on angel’s wings
F Cadd9 G
The chorus filled my soul five thousand strong
F Cadd9 D
And I wished it would just go on and on
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9 G
The firmest hand I’ve ever loved to shake
C D G
Was my trainer’s with that big grin on his face
G Cadd9
He grabbed my bag and put his arm ‘round me
Am D G
And whispered, “I’m gonna work those Mr. Macs right off your feet!”
[Verse 4]
G Cadd9 G
The hardest words I’ve ever anguished for
C D G
Came just before some lady slammed her door
G Cadd9
My trainer left me hanging out to dry
Am D G
As a minute of painful silence rolled right by
[Verse 5]
G Cadd9 G
But the hardest tears I ever loved to cry
C D G
Fell as I opened up my mouth and testified
G Cadd9
Between the tiny walls of a stranger’s living room
Am7 D G
The Spirit told their hearts my words were true
[Bridge 2]
F Cadd9 G
The most wonderful sound I’ve ever heard
F Cadd9 D
Is the sound of water running in the church
F Cadd9 G
As someone I’d come to love got dressed in white
F Cadd9 B D
My eyes saw their first glimpse of Heaven’s light
[Verse 6]
G Cadd9 G
The hardest thing I’ve ever come to see
C D Em
Is a man down on his knees in agony
G Cadd9
A drop of blood falls down on olive leaves
Am D G
And for a moment He suffers there for me
[Verse 7]
G Cadd9 G
The hardest thing I’ve ever loved to do
C D G Cadd9 D
Was getting on this plane and coming home to you
G Cadd9
In a million ways completely torn apart
Am D G
As a land so far away still owns my heart
[Verse 8]
G Cadd9 G
In the most sincere prayer I’ve ever prayed
C D G
I thank my God for each and every day
G Cadd9
For the blessing of the man I’ve come to be
Am7 D Em
As I walk up and kiss my momma’s cheek
C G D Em C Am D G
