This is the chords of Dear God by Cory Asbury on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D
Dear God,
F#m G
I’ve been trying awful hard to make You proud of me
D
But it seems
F#m G
The harder that I try the harder it becomes
D
And I feel like giving up
D/F# G
Most of the time
[Verse 2]
D
Dear God,
F#m G
I’ve been chasing their approval and it’s killing me
D
And I know
F#m
The more I to try to prove
G
The less I have to show
D
And I’m stuck inside my head
F#m G
Most of the time
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
If I pray a little harder
A4
If I follow all the rules
Bm A
I wonder could I ever be enough
[Chorus]
D F#m
I try and I try
G D
Just to fall back down again
F#m
And I ask myself why
G D
Do I try to chase the wind
Bm A
I should lean into the mystery
G A
Maybe hope is found in a melody
Bm A G
So I wanna try again
Bm A G
Yeah, I’m gonna try again
[Verse 3]
D
Dear child,
F#m G
I hope you know how much I love you and I’m proud of you
D
Please believe
F#m G
The thoughts I have for you will never change or fade away
D
When you felt like giving up
G
I was there all alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
I’m not scared of imperfections
A
Or the questions in your head
Bm A
Just know that you have always been enough
[Chorus]
D F#m
You tried and you tried
G D
And I saw you wrestle with
F#m
Every how, every why…
G D
I was right there listening
Bm A
So just fall into the mystery
D
I’ll meet you in the melody
Bm A G
So please try just to try again
Bm A G
So child would you try again
Bm A D
My child you can love again
