James Fortune ft LeAndria Johnson & Zacardi Cortez - It Could Be Worse Chords

_ _ [Eb] One night as I was leaving [Bb] service, I met a young man who [F] asked me to pray for him.
He said he was going through and [C] struggling just to make [F] it through each day.
I began to share [Bb] with him that the fact that he was still here was an indication that his
situation could be worse.
[C] [B] As we began to pray, [G] he got excited and started praising God right [F] there in the parking lot.
So if you like him today, I want you to listen to this.
_ _ [D] You've been saying that you're tired of going through
[Bb] In some days
Things like everyone [F] else is best for you
In church on Sunday
Preacher telling you [C] you're maybe going some place
But now you're [Gm] confused because you
Paid your tithe, you're confused cause [F] you're in it
So you [C] may not [F] have a match
In a gated [Bb] neighborhood
In a [C] gated [G] neighborhood
But you should be grateful [F] because at [Bb] least
[C] You have [F] a roof over [D] your _ [Eb] head
[C] You're looking at the doctors [Dm] reporting
[Bb] You say your [C] body needs [G] a wheel

You're still here, so you're already
So [E] you're [F] already there
So instead of complaining
[Bb] You should thank the [F] Lord
For what you [D] already [Eb] have

[Bb] When I believed in the most
[F] He was the only one there
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 o'clock in the [Cm] morning
[Eb] I had to get down [F] on my knees
And tell God, thank you
For everything that He's done
And everything that It's getting ready to do in [Eb] my life
Whatever you're going [Bb] through
Don't worry about it
[Dm] [F] But go ahead and pray!
I'm an open book y'all, [Eb] I want you to hear testimony [Bb] tonight
I need you to know, [F] every drug, every bit of alcohol
That's trying to [Eb] take over my life, I had to [Bb] cancel it
In the name of Jesus [F] Lord, I had to praise it away
In the midst of what's a-going [Eb] on
I'm raising [Fm] up some of the bills I do
[F] And you don't know where the money's coming from
[C] The Lord has spent money
[Eb] He's gonna spend it again
