Year To The Day

CHORUS:
[G]It's been one year to the day
that I watched you almost die
And yeah, I m[D/F#]ade this song sound happy,
and I know you'll ask me why
Well, the tr[Em]uth is, Junebug, you healed up alright
But I'm still h[D/A]ealing

INSTRUMENTAL:
[G] [D] [Em] [D] [C]

VERSE:
They didn[G]'t even sound the sirens,

no one thought it was that bad
But I knew[D/F#] ER would be chaos,

your brother's heart had taught me that
So I was c[Em]alm and quite collected from the back
Of what seemed standard pro[D]cedure

VERSE 2:
At first, the be[G]epin' then the yellin',
your concussion had you mad
And I heard the to[D/F#]ne change from
the doctor who'd been playin' quarterback
She said, "Da[Em]d, gotta tell ya, it's bad
And her chances are [D]falling"

REFRAIN:
And all I know is I started to[Em] faint[D]
And somebody c[C]aught me
Oh, looking back to that [Em]day[D]
Somebody ca[C]ught me

VERSE 3:
And your mu[G]m was off in Vandy,
she had bruises of her own
I didn't kno[D]w yet how to tell her,
we didn't have much time to go
And a poli[Em]ce car went to get her
She hit the ground in millions of [D]pieces

VERSE 4:
And I made pro[G]mises with God,
and I begged and cried and yelled
And left a life[D]time's worth of tears
inside that cold fluorescent hell
And from my kne[Em]es, I swear I found the kind of faith
That surpassed all r[D]eason

VERSE 5:
And so I th[G]rew a text to Voltron
and all who'd intercede with might
And the bo[D]ys were in Seattle
playin' Summer Worship Nights
I swear I fel[Em]t that arena lift my arms
When I couldn't l[D/F#]ift them

REFRAIN:
And all I know is somebody p[Em]raye[D]d
And Somebody li[C]stened
Oh, somebody pra[Em]yed[D]
And Somebody li[C]stened
Oh, lookin' back a year to the [Em]day
I'm dai[D/F#]ly thankin' God that you're w[C]ith us
And I'll put that down as "somebody [Em]pra[D/F#]yed
And Somebody li[C]stened"

INSTRUMENTAL:
[G] [D] [Em] [D] [C]
[G] [D] [Em] [D/F#] [C]

CHORUS:
Well, it's been [G]one year to the day

that I watched you almost die
And yeah, I ma[D]de this song sound happy,

and I know you'll ask me why
Well, the tr[Em]uth is, you healed up alright
But I'm still he[D]aling
