 My heart is open,
 poured out and broken

fall at Your feet
F       Fsus2 C
So just as I  am,
                 G
with these empty hands

How to play Im Desperate For You: key, chords and progression

These are the chords for Im Desperate For You by Red Rocks Worship on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard

Im Desperate For You by Red Rocks Worship keeps coming home to C major (no sharps or flats). You need 18 chords: C, Cmaj7, G, Am7, Asus2, Fadd9, Fmaj7, C/E, F, Fsus2, Am and Fmaj7sus2 and 6 more.

Listen for F – Fsus2 – C – G (IV – IVsus2 – I – V in C major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is fah – fah – doh – soh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Good to know: on guitar, Fadd9, F, Fsus2, Gadd11 and G6 need a barre or movable shape. Take the change into them slowly at first; piano and ukulele players have it easier.
