D                        G
 I have no idea what to say
 right now

 How could any words ease
      G
 the pain right now?
D/F#             G
 Something like this will
             A
 never make sense,
                  Bm
 will never make sense at all
G           D/F#        G
 I have no idea what to say right now

 And if you wanna come you

[Chorus]
           G
When your questions
don’t have answers
         D
And you just can’t understand it
           G
When your mind just
won’t stop running
         D
And the tears just keep on coming
            G
You don’t have to explain it
    D/F#                 G
He hears you before you can speak
Come with me
                  D    G
Let’s take it to Jesus..
                  D    G
Let’s take it to Jesus, mm-mm-mm

D                          G
 This is the place you can rest
 for a while
D                           G
 If you need to just fall apart
D/F#           G
 Lay down your worry,
              A
 He’s not in a hurry
             Bm
Take all the time you need
D/F#                        G
 This is the place you can rest
 for a while
