God Give Me Strength

Written by Bacharach/Costello

	  		
Bm             Bm7       G             D 
Now I have nothing, so God give me strength 
  C#m7                  F# 
'Cause I'm weak in her wake 
  C#m                F#    F#7 
And if I'm strong I might still brea 
  Bm                Bm7        G 
And I don't have anything to share 
                                 A 
That I won't throw away into the air 

 G            A 
That song is sung out 
 Em           A 
This bell is rung out 
Em           F#m7            A 
She was the light that I'd bless 
Em          F#m            A 
She took my last chance at happiness 
G               Bm       Em          D 
So God give me strength, God give me strength 
  

I can't hold onto her, God give me strength 
When the phone doesn't ring 
And I'm lost in imagining 
Everything that kind of love is worth 
As I tumble back down to the earth 

 G            A 
That song is sung out 
 Em           A 
This bell is rung out 
Em           F#m7            A 
She was the light that I'd bless 
Em          F#m            A 
She took my last chance at happiness 
G               Bm       Em          D 
So God give me strength, God give me strength 

(Bridge) 
God if she'd grant me her indulgence and decline 
I might as well,  wipe her from my memory 
Fracture the spell,  as she becomes my enemy 
Maybe I was washed out like a lip-print on my shirt 
See, I'm only human, I want her to hurt 
I want her 
I want her to hurt 

instrumental

Since I lost the power to pretend 
That there could ever be a happy ending 

 G            A 
That song is sung out 
 Em           A 
This bell is rung out 
Em           F#m7            A 
She was the light that I'd bless 
Em          F#m            A 
She took my last chance at happiness 
G               Bm       Em          D 
So God give me strength, God give me strength
