C                   Am
I used to think you took some kind
                     E
of pleasure kicking me
While I was down, I was down
C                      Am
Was so convinced that there was
                   E
no amount of therapy
To pull me out, pull me out

F
I was praying late at night,
       Am
"Just please don't let me die"
    F                               E
But it takes someone truly special to always survive

Chorus:
      C                Am                 E
I'm starting to believe I might be God's favorite
        C                  Am           E
'Cause never in my dreams did I see me here
C            Am
Dark nights, hard times
E                            C         Am
Bad guys, past life, I got away from it
      E                                C
I'm starting to believe I'm God's favorite
               Am
I'm God's favorite
               E
I'm God's favorite

Every day, I count my lucky stars I ran away
I ran away to LA
Now and then, the darkness rolls around,
but I'm not afraid
I'm not the same, not the same

I was praying late at night,
"Just please don't let me die"
But it takes someone truly
special to always survive

Chorus:
I'm starting to believe I might be God's favorite
'Cause never in my dreams did I see me here
Dark nights, hard times
Bad guys, past life, I got away away from it
I'm starting to believe I'm God's favorite

Am             E
I'm God's favorite
               C
I'm God's favorite
Am             E C
I'm God's favorite
Am             E
I'm God's favorite
               C
I'm God's favorite
Am             E
I'm God's favorite
