Intro
G D Em C .
 
 
Verse 1
G D I remember that long cold night
How dark it was
EmHeart broke, blinds closed
CDidn't even wanna see the sun, no
G D Like a refugee with nowhere to run
EmLies in my mind held me hostage like a loaded gun
CTellin' me I had no one, was no one
 
Verse 2
G D God, I was too prideful to pick up that phone
Three a m
Em I knew I needed help
CBut man I didn't want anyone else to know
I was losing it
G D Somewhere between the deepest hell
And lowest low
Em I heard a voice from overhead
CSayin' “son, don't you dare let go”
 
Chorus
GI looked up
DI looked up
AmFrom the bottom and I saw You
C It was all You
GI looked up
DI looked up
AmFrom the bottom and I saw You
C It was all You
G D Am C .
 
 
Verse 3
G D I was at my lowest that night on August sixth
EmTrying to wrestle with all the pain and hell
I was dealing with
CPunching holes, throwing blows, pitching fits
Trying not to drown
G D Wasn't feeling like I was good enough
EmI knew I just couldn't ever keep this up
CStarted sinking underneath from all this endless over-thinking
 
Verse 4
G D How could I forget, I can't forget
Spending forty days in the wilderness
Em Feeling like I messed up too bad
CSo bad, I'd never get out of it
G D Ain't it funny how heaven comes in the least expected ways
Em C My roommate in rehab looked over at me
Said it's gonna be okay, then
 
Chorus

DI looked up
AmFrom the bottom and I saw You
C It was all You

Verse 5
G Sunday morning, I just kept
D Circling the Church
EmMy heart was beating out of my chest
CCouldn't make a sound or even say a word
G Tried to pick up my phone
DCall my wife and tell her how I feel
EmBut my hands were heavy as two stones
CTen and two, stuck on the steering wheel
G D How Do you worship when your soul ain't got a song to sing?
Em CIt's hard to remember when your heart forgets the melody, Jesus
G D When all I had was Your name on my lips
EmThat's when I sent an SOS to heaven
CAnd heaven broke in to come and rescue me
 
Chorus
GI looked up (Oh-oh)
DI looked up (Yeah)
Am CFrom the bottom and I saw You (Yeah)
It was all You

DI looked up (Oh)
Am CFrom the bottom and I saw You (Yeah)
It was all You
 
Post-Chorus
GOh, oh
DOh, oh
Am COh, ooh
It was all You
GOh, oh
DOh, oh
Am COh, ooh
It was all You

Verse 6
G D Sometimes I gotta look back at the man I was
Em C To remember just how far You brought me, how far I've come,
all those little victories won
G D I'm so glad You always see the best in me
EmYou always knew the man that I could be
CFrom the moment I got down on my knees
