If I Stand Chords

Intro: Gsus G Gsus G


Verse 1:
         G              D                        G
There's more that rises in the morning than the sun
D/F#        Em                    D          C
More that shines in the night than just the moon
         Am                 Dsus  D        G    D/F# Em
There's more than just this fire here that keeps me warm
      A                           Dsus  D
In a shelter that is larger than this room

           G               D               G
There's a loyolty that's deeper than mere sentiment
D/F#         Em                        D      C
And a music higher than the songs that I can sing
Am            Dsus    D               G  D/F#3  
The stuff of earth competes for the allegiance
       A                        Dsus  D
I owe only to the giver of all good things


Chorus:
         G             C            Em                   A      Dsus  D Dsus 
So if I stand let me stand on the promise that you will pull me through
          Am           C            Em               Dsus  D      G C Em D
And if I can't let me fall on the grace that first brought me to you
     G            C            Em           A                Dsus D Dsus D
If I sing let me sing for the joy that has born in me these songs 
          Am                 Em          Dsus            G  C  Em D     
But if I weep let it be as a man who is longing for his home 

verse 2: 
         G               D                         G
There's more that dances on the prairies than the wind
D/F#       Em                  D        C
More than pulses in the ocean than the tide 
Am                    Dsus  D         G             Em   
There's a love that fiercer than the love between friends
       A                              Dsus          D
More gently than a mother's when her baby's at her side

                G              D                  G
And there's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiment 
D/F#                     Em               C
A music higher than the songs that I can sing  
Am            Dsus    D               G D/F# Em
The stuff of earth competes for the allegiance 
       Asus         A                Dsus  D
I owe only to the giver of all good things

Chorus:
