[Verse 1]
Am           F
I, I saw the light
               C                    G
On county back roads is where I met God
Am                F
Real, can this be real?
               C                       G
I'm pinching myself 'cause it blows my mind

[Pre-Chorus]
F                G
Wondering why He choose me but I know

[Chorus 1]
C                      E
I'm not a perfect man, Lord knows I'm not
    Am                        F
But I'll get to Heaven by the   grace of God
     C      E                 Am
Hallelujah, God, I'll sing it to Ya
    F
The sinner's hallelujah

[Verse 2]
Am                   F
Where, where could I go
                 C                      G
To hide from the Lord, to hide from His love?
Am                 F
Highs, oh, are the heights
              C                   G
The towers of love that shadow my life

[Pre-Chorus]
F                G         G
Wondering why He choose me but I know

[Chorus 2]
C                      E
I'm not a perfect man, Lord knows I'm not
    Am                        F
But I'll get to Heaven by the grace of God
     C      E               Am          F
Hallelujah, God, I'll run into Ya (Woah)
C                 E
I was a prodigal, far from my home
    Am                         F
But You call me child like I'm one of Your own
     C      E                 Am
Hallelujah, God, I'll sing it to Ya
    F             F
The sinner's hallelujah

[Interlude]
 C    E      Am      F  
C        E    Am      F   

[Bridge]
          Am             E/G#
I've been washed, saved, changed
          C/G        D/F#
I've been drowned by grace
       Am       E/G#      C/G    D/F#
In the rain, no way I can be the same as I was

[End-Chorus]
C                      E
I'm not a perfect man, Lord knows I'm not
    Am                       (F)
But I'll get to Heaven by the grace of God
     C      E                 Am           F
Hallelujah, God, I'll sing it to Ya (Woah)
C                 E
I was a prodigal, far from my home
    Am                         F
But You call me child like I'm one of Your own
     C      E               Am
