Lyrics

Was twen ty (Ebsus2)sev en, sur viv ing my (Bb)my re turn of Sa turn.

A long (Ebsus2)va ca tion did nโ€™t sound so bad.

Was full of (Ebsus2)sec rets locked up (Bb)tight like I ron Moun tain.

Oh, I can Run ning on emp ty, so out of gas.

I know Thought I was nโ€™t e nough, found I was nโ€™t so tough

lay ing on the bath room (Fsus)floor.

We were liv ing (Eb)on a fault a line and I felt the fault was all mine.

Could nโ€™t take it an y (Fsus)more.

(Ebsus2)By the grace (Bb)of God, there was no oth er (Gm7)way.

I (Ebsus2)picked my self (Bb)back up, I knew I had to (Gm7)stay.

I (Ebsus2)put one foot (Bb)in front of the oth (Gm7)er and I looked in the mir ror and de (Fsus)cid ed to stay.

Was nโ€™t gon na let (Bb)love take me out

that way.

I thank my (Ebsus2)sis ter for keep ing my (Bb)head a bove the wa ter

A when (Ebsus2)the truth was like swal low ing sand.

Now, ev โ€™ry (Ebsus2)morn ing, locked up (Bb)there is no more mourn ing.

Oh, I can fi nal ly see my self out a gain.

I know Thought I I am e nough, pos si ble to be loved.

It was not the a bout (Fsus)me.

Now I liv ing (Eb)have to rise a bove, let the u ni verse call the bluff.

Yeah, the truth will set you (Fsus)free.

(Ebsus2)By the grace (Bb)of God, there was no oth er (Gm7)way.

I (Ebsus2)picked my self (Bb)back up, I knew I had to (Gm7)stay.

I (Ebsus2)put one foot (Bb)in front of the oth (Gm7)er and I looked in the mir ror and de (Fsus)cid ed to stay.

Was nโ€™t gon na let (Bb)love take me out

that way.

that way,

no.

that way,

no.

(Cm)Not in the name, of love.

in the name of love.

That way, no, That way,

no.

(Bb)I am not giv ing (Cm)up.

(Ebmaj9)By the (Bbsus2)grace of God,

I (Ebsus2)picked my (Bbsus2)self back up.

I (Ebsus2)put one foot (Bb)in front of the oth (Gm7)er and I looked in the mir (Bb)ror,

looked in (Gm)the mir ror.

that way.

About โ€œBy The Grace Of Godโ€

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes โ€” "By The Grace Of God" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature Eb, time signature, beams, dynamics โ€” everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
Sheet Music is the "classic" view โ€” the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
Yes โ€” slow the tempo from 80 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
Why can I click a note in the score?
Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes โ€” Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
