I Never Loved Before I Found You - Front Porch Step
Standard tuning, no capo
F G
Who could love a man like me?
F G Am
Who would even want to share the air I breathe?
F G E Am
I've been so wild like a dirty rotten dog,
F G
And they should shoot me for the blood drawn with my teeth.
F G C
I never loved before I found you.
F G Am
As if you ever hid from me.
F G E Am
Love is not a word or a soft romantic verse,
F G
Or a soul that's trapped behind computer screens.
C E Am
And they'll all say I'm not a Christian man.
F C G
They'll claim I wrote this song to sell.
C E
If they only knew
Am
About the things that I've gone through
F G C
They wouldn't wish I'd burn in hell.
F G C
Well I have fought too many times
F G Am
But I don't think I've ever won.
F G
Swung for the fences.
E Am
Wasn't raised to be defenceless
F G
But you learn that you just can't fight everyone
F G C
I know they'll always talk about me
F G Am
But you won't ever see me run.
F G
They can black my eyes,
E Am
They can shoot me with a gun
F G
But you'll never kill the man that I've become.
C E Am
And they'll all say I'm not a Christian man.
F C G
They'll claim I wrote this song to sell.
C E
If they only knew
Am
That’s exactly what I used to do
F G C
And why I still wish I would burn in hell
F G C
Who could love a man like me?
F G Am
The one that gives me air to breathe.
F G E Am
The same one that I have hung upon a cross
F G
Would get down on the ground and wash my feet for me.
*End on C*
