Intro- 
D* G* Cadd9  G6 D/F#*  D* G* Cadd9  D 
D* G* Cadd9  G6 D/F#*  D* G* Cadd9  D* 

 

D*    G*     Cadd9           G6           D/F#*
  Was twenty-seven surviving my return to sader
D*  G*     Cadd9                D*
  A long vacation, didn't sound so bad
D*    G*      Cadd9             G6              D/F#*
  Was full of secrets locked up tight like iron mountain
D* G*         Cadd9        D
   Running on empty so out of cares



Cadd9                 Em7
  Thought I wasn't enough
                  G
Found I wasn't so tough
                       D/F#
Laying on the bathroom floor
Cadd9                          Em7
  We were living on a fault line
                             G
And I felt the fault was all mine
                    D/F#
Couldn't take it anymore



Cadd9  G        D
By the grace of God (There was no other way)
  Cadd9    G         D
I picked myself back up (I knew I had to say)
  Cadd9   G       D/F#                    Cadd9*
I put one foot in front of the other and I
              G*           D*          Em7* Cadd9*
Looked in the mirror and decided to stay
                 G*           D/F#*       D* G* Cadd9  G6 D/F#*
Wasn't gonna let love take me up that way


[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/k/katy_perry/by_the_grace_of_god_crd.html ]
D*  G*       Cadd9                 G6             D/F#*
  I thank my sister for keeping my head above the water
D* G*       Cadd9                D*
   When the truth was like swallowing sand
D*     G*    Cadd9       G6               D/F#*
  Now, every morning, oh there is no more mourning Oh, I
D*    G*      Cadd9      D
  Can finally see myself again



Cadd9            Em7
  I know I am enough, 
               G
Possible to be loved
                D/F#    
It was not about  me
Cadd9                 Em7                     
  Now I have to rise above
                          G
Let the Universe call the bluff
                           D/F#
Yeah, the truth'll set you free



Cadd9  G      D
By the grace of God (There was no other way)
  Cadd9    G         D
I picked myself back up (I knew I had to say)
  Cadd9   G       D/F#                    Cadd9*
I put one foot in front of the other and I
              G*           D*          Em7* Cadd9*
Looked in the mirror and decided to stay
                 G*           D/F#         Em7  
Wasn't gonna let love take me up,  oh that way (Way no)



     D/F#
That way, no
G
Not in the name (Of love)
D/F#    
 In the name of love 
     Em7           D/F#
That way (No) that way, no
G               D*
I am not giving up



Cadd9* G*       D*
By the grace of God 
  Cadd9*   G*        D*
I picked myself back up 
  Cadd9   G       D/F#                    Cadd9
I put one foot in front of the other and I
                                   D         
Looked in the mirror (Looked in the mirror)
I looked in the mirror (Looked in the mirror)



Cadd9  G        D
By the grace of God (There was no other way)
  Cadd9    G         D
I picked myself back up (I knew I had to say)
  Cadd9   G       D/F#                    Cadd9*
I put one foot in front of the other and I
              G*           D*          Em7* Cadd9*
Looked in the mirror and decided to stay

Wasn't gonna let love take me up that way
