            Am                         G/A
I kept the right ones out and let the wrong ones in
       C7                                       F
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
           Fm/G#                        C/G
There were times in my life when I was goin' insane
  Am/F#                     F
Tryin' to walk through the pain

When I lost my grip and I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave but couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tired of livin' a lie
I was wishin' that I would die

Chorus:
       C    Em           F                  Em              G   G7
It's amazing, with the blink of an eye you finally see the light
       C    Em         F                       Em               G   G7
It's amazing when the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
       F Em           D7                      G7                 C   C/B
It's amazing and I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight

     Am                             D7
That one last shot's a permanent vacation
     F                                C   C/B
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
 Am                         D7
Life's a journey not a destination
       F                                   G
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings

You have to learn to crawl before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk
Well, I was out on the street, just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay alive

Chorus

That one last shot's a permanent vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings

Chorus
