[E]
[A]
[E] I'm a warrior that fights [A] and wins the battle I know the taste of [E] victory
Though I went through some nights consumed [A] by the shadows
I was [E] crippled emotionally
[A] Somehow I laid [E] into the [C#m] heartache
[F#m] Once I did, [C#m] I escaped [C#] I
[F#m] found my way [C#m] out of darkness
I kept my [A] faith, I knew it deep I kept my faith
[E] When the river was deep I [A] didn't falter
When the mountain [E] was high I still [A] believed
When the valley [E] was low It [A] didn't stop me no more
[F#m] I knew [C#m] you were waiting [F#m] I knew you were waiting [E] for me Uh huh
With an endless dream like [A] fire I kept on searching
Sure [E] in time my eyes would meet Like bridges on fire
[A]
[E] One touch sets me free Oh
[F#m]
I don't regret [C#m] a single moment [F#m] No I don't
I know you don't [C#m] look [C#] back [F#m]
When I think the most [E] disappointment
[A] Should lay I know you do
I should lay
When [E] the river was deep I [A] didn't falter
When the mountain [E] was high I still [A] believed
When the valley [E] was low It [A] didn't stop me
Uh [F#m] [C#m] [F#m] huh
I knew you were waiting for [E] me So we [A] were [Am] drawn [E]
together
[G#] Through [C#m] destiny Move on
I know [A] this [Am] love we [E]
share Which [D] lives to be yours
[F#m] I knew you [C#m] were waiting [G] [F#m] I knew you [C#m] were [F#m] waiting
I knew you [A] were [Bm] waiting for [E] me
But I [A] didn't falter I didn't [E]
