Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

The day is dimming and I'm yearning for you

I won't be satisfied till I see your face

Every victory, every loss

  Every ticket, every cross

 You can put them all in place

It seems I'm finding more of why

In these moments

I feel like I'm made to sing of how good you are

The more the years swell by and pass

 Each seconds more than last

 It's true by far

Thats no profound thought or clever rhyme

No soaring grand, melodic line

No theory, philosophy or sign

Can explain it

Can explain

 Where you are, I wanna be

 It's your love that has changed me

 I'd give the world, and all it's charms

 For a moment in your arms

 Better is one day with you

 Than a thousand elsewhere

 A thousand elsewhere

I still remember what it felt like before you

I'm grateful every day for how things have changed

I'll thank you every way I can

cause my life only began

When I heard you call my name

Now, no praise of man

No great acclaim

No humble looking kind of fane

No power, wealth or worldly gain

Could satisfy me

Could ever satisfy

Cause-- Where you are, I wanna be

It's your grace that has raised me

I'd give my whole life to honor you

And whom I live

And whom I move

Better is one day with you

Than a thousand elsewhere

Better is one day in your courts

Better is one day in your house

Better is one day in your courts

Than anywhere else ohh

 Lead me, lead me,

Lead me to your self

 Lead me to your heart

Where you are, I wanna be

It's your love that has changed me

I'd give my life, to honor you

and whom I live

and whom I move

Better is one day with you

Than a thousand elsewhere

A thousand elsewhere....
