Tom : D
D Bm G A
[Verse]
D Bm
When life hits you like a hurricane
G
Blind sides you with pain
A
High winds and rain
D
And you see no end in sight
D Bm
Though darkness may fall
G
And there's no hope at all
A
I know you'll stand tall
A
Like a beacon in the night
[Chorus]
G
I pray you always be strong
Bm
You always be brave
A
Take heart and hold on for dear life
A G Bm A
Wave after wave, after all those tears fall down, down, down
Em
Come hell or high water
D A D
Only love will find you higher ground
[Verse 2]
D Bm
When the streets are flooded with hate
G
Stand firm at your gate
A D
Keep your faith and forgive, and be just like a child
Bm G
There's no color or race, just a beautiful face
A
Make the world a better place
A
Change their life with your smile
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
D Bm F#m D A
[Chorus]
