Hey everyone, in the recording of this song, Chris is playing piano, but I've seen him
live and there he played it on guitar so I tabbed it out that way. This tab is capo 3,
however to play it without a capo (or for the piano chords) just use the transpose tool
on the page to transpose it up 3 half-steps. Also, with some of the Esus4's at the ends of
lines it can be hard to tell whether he's resolving the chord or not, I put it in there
when I can definitely tell he's doing it, but just listen to the song and play around
with it and see what you like. The song is in standard tuning, all chords relative to
capo. Enjoy! God bless!
(The intro is a little funky and tough to play on guitar, but these are the base chords)
Intro:
A, Asus2, E
Asus2
I've been living in this house here
Esus4 E
Since the day that I was born
Asus2
These walls have seen me happy
F#m Esus4
But most of all they've seen me torn
Asus2
They've heard the screaming matches
Esus4 E
That made a family fall apart
Asus2
They've had a front row seat
F#m Esus4 E
To the breaking of my heart
A D
7 times 70 times
F#m Esus4
I'll do what it takes to make it right
A D
I thought the pain was here to stay
F#m Esus4 E
But forgiveness made a way
A D
7 times 70 times
F#m Esus4
There's healing in the air tonight
A D
I'm reaching up to pull it down
F#m Esus4 A
Gonna wrap it all around

Asus2
I remember running down the hallway
F#m Esus4
Playing hide and seek
Asus2
I didn't know that I was searching
F#m Esus4
For someone to notice me
Asus2
I felt alone and undiscovered
F#m Esus4
And old enough to understand
Asus2
Just when I'm s'posed to be learning to love You
F#m Esus4 E
Let me doubt again
A D
7 times 70 times
F#m Esus4
I'll do what it takes to make it right
A D
I thought the pain was here to stay
F#m Esus4 E
But forgiveness made a way
A D
7 times 70 times
F#m Esus4
There's healing in the air tonight
A D
I'm reaching up to pull it down
F#m Esus4 A
Gonna wrap it all around
C#m
I lost count of the ways You let me down
D F#m
But no matter how many times You weren't around
Esus4 E
I'm all right now
C#m
God picked up my heart and helped me through
D F#m
And shined a light on the one thing left to do
E D
And that's forgive You
D
I forgive You
A D
7 times 70 times
F#m Esus4
If that's the cost I'll pay the price
A D
7 times 70 times
F#m Esus4
I'll do what it takes to make it right
A D
I thought the pain was here to stay
F#m Esus4 E
But forgiveness made a way
A D
7 times 70 times
F#m Esus4
There's healing in this house tonight
A D
I'm reaching up to pull it down
F#m E A
Gonna wrap it all around
A Esus4 E
