Intro (Piano)
C F Am G x 2
Verse 1
F
I’ve been living in this house here
Am G
Since the day that I was born
F
These walls have seen me happy
Am G
But most of all they’ve seen me torn
Am
They’ve heard the screaming matches
G
That made a family fall apart
C
They’ve had a front row seat
G
To the breaking of my heart
Chorus 1
C F
7 times 70 times
Am G
I’ll do what it takes to make it right
C F
I thought the pain was here to stay
Am G
But forgiveness made a way
C F
7 times 70 times
Am G
There’s healing in the air tonight
C F
I’m reaching up to pull it down
Am G C
Gonna wrap it all around
(After Verse 2’s chorus, return to Bridge)
Verse 2
F
I remember running down the hallway
Am G
Playing hide-and-seek
F
I didn’t know that I was searching
Am G
For someone to notice me
Am
I felt alone and undiscovered

G
And old enough to understand
C
Just when I’m s’posed to be learning to love you
G
Let me doubt again
Back to Chorus 1
Bridge
C
I lost count of the ways you let me down
F Am
But no matter how many times you weren’t around
G
I’m all right now
C
God picked up my heart and helped me through
F Am
And shined a light on the one thing left to do
F
And that’s forgive you
G
I forgive you
Chorus 2

Am G
If that’s the cost I’ll pay the price
C F
7 times 70 times
Am G
I’ll do what it takes to make it right
C F
I thought the pain was here to stay
Am G
But forgiveness made a way
C F
7 times 70 times
Am G
There’s healing in this house tonight
C F
I’m reaching up to pull it down

Gonna wrap it all around
Yeah

I’m gonna wrap it all around
