Shawn McDonald - Take This Life lyrics
Standard tuning
Capo 3
Intro: Em D C G x2
Verse 1
As I'[Em]m standing here, staring into the mirror
See the [D]figure of a man trying to take a stand
And [C]live for something m[G]ore
Integ[Em]rity is what I need and honor to my soul I f[D]eed
To give it up, pack it in, getti[C]ng rid of all my sin that's weig[G]hing me down
Won't You[F] come and fi[G]ll
I want You to co[F]me and make me more r[G]eal
Chorus 1
T[Em]ake this life, won't You c[C]hange this life
[G]Come and make me who[D]le
Won't Yo[Em]u take this life, won't Y[C]ou change this life
[D]Come and make me whol[C]e
Repeat intro
Verse 2
In[Em] my pursuit of what is real
My he[D]art is longing with a need to feel
my [C]soul come a[G]live
I tr[Em]udge and I step through the height and the death
Of a lon[D]g narrow as I'm growing old
And soon[C] I will be home[G]
Wont you com[F]e and fil[G]l
I want you to c[F]ome and make me m[G]ore real
Chorus 2
[Em]Take this life, won't You ch[C]ange this life
[G]Come and make me w[D]hole
Won't You[Em] take this life, won't Y[C]ou change this life
[D]Come and make me whol[C]e
Won't You[Em] Take this life, won't Y[C]ou change this life
Won't Yo[D]u Come and make me [C]whole
Bridge
As I'm[Em] standing here, staring into the mirror
See the [D]figure of a man trying to take a stand
And li[C]ve for something m[G]ore
Int[Em]egrity is what I need and honor to my soul I f[D]eed
To give it up, pack it[C] in, getting rid of all my sin tha[G]t's weighing me down
Ending
Ta[Em]ke this life, won't You [C]change this life
[G]Come and make me who[D]le
[Em]Won't You take this life, won't Yo[C]u change this life
[G]Come and make me wh[D]ole
[Em]Won't You Take this life, won't Y[C]ou change this life
Won't Yo[G]u Come and make me [D]whole
Won't Yo[Em]u Take this life, won't Y[C]ou change this life
Won't You[D] Come and make me[C] whole
C[C]ome and Make me [D]whole[Em]
