Start Jamming...
Thank you.
Listen, we'll do one more song and then we're all over.
We've been running real late here, but you guys have been [Gm] really terrific.
[N] I can't tell you how much you have [G] given us.
And we're going to carry that to Houston tomorrow.
Billy's is going to be easier now.
[C] [Em] [Am]
[G]
[D] [G]
[D] [G] Why me, Lord?
What have I [C] ever done
To deserve [G] even one
Of the pleasures [D] I've known?
[G] Tell me, Lord, what did I [C] ever do
That was worth [G] loving you
[D] For the kindness [G] you've [C]
[G] shown?
[C] Lord, help me, Jesus
[G] I've wasted it, so [Em] help [D] me, Jesus
I know what [G] I am
[C] Now that I know [G] that I've needed you
So [E] help [D] me, Jesus
My soul's in [G] your hands
[D] [E] [G] Try me, Lord
If you think there's [C] a way
I can try [Am] to [G] repay
All I've taken [D] from you
[Em] [G] Maybe, Lord
I can show [C] someone else
What I've been through [G] myself
On [D] my way back [G] to you
[C]
Lord, help me, Jesus
[G] I've wasted it, so [Bm] [G] help [D] me, Jesus
I know what [G] I am
[C] Now that I know that [G] I've needed you
So [C] help [D] me, Jesus
My soul's in [G] your hands
[Em] [D]
Jesus, [G] my [A] soul's in [E] your hands
[G]
God [C] bless you.
Good night.
[G] [Bm] [D]
