[Verse 1]
F
I used to shake You like an 8-ball
C
I used to shoot You like a gun
Dm
I used to hold You like a hammer
Bb
Try to nail down everyone
F
I used to keep You in a steeple
C
I used to bind You in a book
Dm
I used to take You like prescription
Bb
Without knowing what I took
[Chorus]
C Dm Bb
And now I just don't buy in it anymore
C Dm Bb
No, I've tried and I've tried to know everything for sure
C Dm Bb
But I find I know less as I've come to know You more
Dm C
You're not who I thought You were
Bb Dm C
Praise the Lord
Bb Dm C
Praise the Lord
[Verse 2]
F
Your love's an ocean, not a river
C
A symphony, not just a song
Dm
I don't think everybody's right
Bb
I think we often get it wrong
F
I think that when we get to Heaven
C
We're gonna laugh when we can see
Dm
How hard we try to make it
Bb
And how easy it should be
[Chorus]
C Dm Bb
And so I just don't buy in it anymore
C Dm Bb
No, I've tried and I've tried to know everything for sure
C Dm Bb
But I find I know less as I've come to know You more
Dm C
You're not who I thought You were
Bb Dm C
Praise the Lord
Bb Dm C
Praise the Lord
[Verse 3]
F C
'cause Providence is endless, and mercy is a mystery
Dm C Bb
And fear is no good reason to believe in anything
[Chorus]
C Dm Bb
So I just don't buy in it anymore
C Dm Bb
No, I've tried and I've tried to know everything for sure
C Dm Bb
But I find I know less as I've come to know You more
Dm C
You're not who I thought You were
Bb Dm C
Praise the Lord, oh my soul
Bb Dm C
Praise the Lord, oh my soul
Bb Dm C
Praise the Lord, oh my soul
Bb Dm C
Praise the Lord
Bb
Praise the Lord
