Artist: MercyMe
Album: The Generous Mr. Lovewell
Chords by: Kurtis
This is definitely one of my favorite songs by MercyMe on this
album. It's very simple, but carries a really good message.
I probably didn't need to write out all the lyrics, but just to be
thorough, they're here for you. I've put the standard chords above
the lyrics, although I think it sounds a little better with the barre
chords, so those are here as well.

-Intro-
D A G
D A G
-Verse I-
D A G
Nobody said it would be easy,
D A G
Nobody said that life's a breeze,
D A G
Tossin' and turnin', oh the wind keeps churnin' like I'm
D A G
A little toy boat out on the sea.
-Verse II-
D A G
If I'm down, don't count me out,
D A G
I'll slowly get back on my feet,
D A G
Stumblin' and fumblin' but I keep on comin', just as long
D A G
As you're not givin' up on me.
-Chorus-
D A G
And when I trip, fall, and slow down to a crawl,
D A G
And feel like, I got nothin' left to lose,
D A G
Well I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide,
D A G
But I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You.
-Verse III-
D A G
There are days my head is spinning,
D A G
Wishin' I could hit the switch and end this ride,
D - G
If it came to a stop, and someone let me off, I know,
D A G
I would just get right back in line.
-Chorus-
D A G
And when I trip, fall, and slow down to a crawl,
D A G
And feel like, I got nothin' left to lose,
D A G
Well I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide,
D A G
But I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You.
-Bridge-
Bm A G
What kind of Love would say, I love you anyway,
D A
Oh time and time again,
G
Yeah yeah yeah...
D A G
-Chorus (extended)-
D A G
And when I trip, fall, and slow down to a crawl,
D A G
And feel like, I got nothin' left to lose,
D A G
Well I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide,
D A G
But I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You.
[Repeat chord progression to fade - for the most part]
Yeah and I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You,
Oh, I may slip, slide, and watch our worlds collide,
But I will, yes I will, hit the ground runnin' back to You
Oh yeah, I hit the ground runnin' back to You.
||: I hit the ground, crashin' down, rollin' round, but I rebound,
I get back up and I'll be found, runnin', runnin' back to You :||
I'm runnin' back to You,
Back to You, back to You, back to You...
Runnin' back to you...
