Em F
F C G
[Verse 1]
F C
I know I’ll get an answer
G C
that I won’t understand
F C G
If I ask that your intentions be made clear
F C
I know your plans are greater
Em F
And in that greater plan
F G C
Lie the reasons why you brought me here
[Verse 2]
F C
This story would be different
G C
If it were only mine to write
F C G
There are secrets I would never volunteer
F C
But secrets lose their power
Em F
When they have no place to hide
F G C
Maybe that is why you brought me here
[Chorus]
F
Oh,
G C
I hope you know what you’re doing
F G C
You brought me here
[Verse 3]
F C
It’s a mess of my own making
G C
I fully realize
F C G
And the consequences shake my heart with fear
F C
But if I was happy with the way things were
Em F
Then I’d put up a fight
F G C
Guess I’m grateful that you brought me here
[Chorus]
F
Oh,
G C
All I see are the ruins
F G C
But oh, as the smoke starts to clear
F G
Heyyyyeeeee
C Am
I trust you know what you’re doing
F G C
You brought me here
[Bridge]
Am F C G
If its hard to raise the white flag then its harder to believe
Am F C G
That surrendering is worth the sacrifice
Am F C G
Because the very thing I always feared would be the death of me
Dm F
Was a way to come alive
[Verse 4]
F C
It hurts to be so broken
G C
But its bearable somehow
F C G
As the grounds to prove I’m worthy disappear
F C
I’ve always heard you loved me
Em F
And I think I know it now
F G C
It’s a reason why you brought me here
F G C
Love’s a reason why you brought me here
