Lyrics

Caught in the half light,

I’m caught a lone;

wak ing (Dm)up to the sun

(F)rise

and the ra (C)di o.

Feels like I’m tied up.

What’s hold ing me?

Just pray ing to day will be the day

I go (C)free.

And I want to live like there’s no to mor row,

I want to (Am7)dance like no one’s a round,

I want to (Dm)sing like no bod y’s lis t’ning be fore I (Gsus)lay my bod y (G)down.

I want to (C)give like I have plen ty,

I want to (Am7)love like I’m not a fraid,

I want to (Dm)be the man I was meant to be, I want to (Bb)be the way (F)I was made.

Made in Your like ness,

made with Your hands.

Made to dis cov er who You are and who I am.

And all I’ve for got ten,

help me to find.

And all that You’ve prom ised,

(F)let it be in my life.

And I want to (Bb)be the way (F)I was made,

(F)hey.

(Ab)Oh,

the way I was made.

(Ab)Oh,

(Bb)oh.

I want to (C)live like there’s no to mor row,

I want to (Am7)dance like no one’s a round,

I want to (Dm)sing like no bod y’s lis t’ning be fore I (Gsus)lay my bod y (G)down.

I want to (C)give like I have plen ty,

I want to (Am7)love like I’m not a fraid,

I want to (Dm)be the man I was meant to be, I want to (Bb)be the way (F)I was made.

want to (Bb)be the way (F)I was made.

I want to (Bb)be the way (F)I was made.
