Tom : A
D A/C#
Take me back to simple things
D A/E
Where I found You in everything
D A/C#
And worship wasn't just a song I'd sing
Bm A
All my life an offering
[Interlude]
| D | A/C# | D | A/E |
[Verse 2]
D A/C#
Take me back to simple things
D A/E
Where innocence was everything
D A/C#
And like a child my song would be
Bm A
Unrehearsed and wild and free
[Chorus]
D A/C#
I am because You are
D A/E
The center of my heart
D A/C#
I'm loved because You're love
Bm A
And that will be enough
[Interlude]
| D | A/C# | D | A/E |
[Verse 3]
D A/C#
Take me back to simple things
D A/E
Behind closed doors, just You and me
D A/C#
With nothing grand that I could bring
Bm A
Your presence was enough for me
[Chorus 2x]
[Interlude]

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
[Chorus]
