Thread The Needle

	  		
G 
My mama told me not to worry now 
         D 
Cause I’m old enough to be alone 
C 
I bend me knees and pray to God 
G 
I’ve always been the most impulsive one 
     D 
And I know where I’ve been going wrong 
C 
I bend my knees and pray to God 
D                              (down strum 5x) 
I bend my knees and pray to God 

G                      D 
Oh my god I’ve tried to thread the needle 
G 
Into this old light 
     C 
And I know sometimes it’s hard to try 
     D 
And I know sometimes it’s hard to try 
     C                     D 
And I know sometimes, and I know sometimes 
 Bm 
I know sometimes I hide 

G 
You’ll find your feet, try not to worry now 
            D 
Cause you’re not too proud to need someone 
C 
I bend my knees and pray to God 
D                              (down strum 5x) 
I bend my knees and pray to God 

G                      D 
Oh my god I’ve tried to thread the needle 
G 
Into this old light 
     C 
And I know sometimes it’s hard to try 
     D 
And I know sometimes it’s hard to try 
G                      D 
Oh my god I’ve tried to thread the needle 
G 
Into this old light 
     C 
And I know sometimes it’s hard to try 
     D 
And I know sometimes it’s hard to try 
     C                     D 
And I know sometimes, and I know sometimes 
 Bm 
I know sometimes I hide
