[Verse 1]
G                   D          C      G        D C
Now and then these feet just take to wandering
G               D        C      G   D C
Now and then I prop them up at home
G             D     C           G        D
Sometimes I think about the consequences
              G   D C
Sometimes I don't

G D C


[Verse 2]
          G             D      C            G    D C
Well, I realize that falling down ain't graceful
        G                   D       C         G   D C
But I thank the Lord that falling's full of grace
 G            D      C         G
Sometimes I take my eyes off Jesus
          D                 G
And you know that's all it takes


[Chorus]
        D                                 Bm
Well I wish that I could say that at the close of every day
       C              D               G
I was happy with the way that I'm behaving

        C                   D
'Cause Job, he chased and answer
     G                     C
The wise men chased the Child
  F              A#
Jacob chased her 14 years and he
   C                D
Captured Rachel's smile
     C                   D
And Moses chased the Promised Land
  G               C
Joseph chased a dream
 Em                 D         C
David, he chased God's own heart
                            C  G D C
All I ever seem to chase is me

[Verse 3]
           G              D     C         G    D  C
Well, they say a race can only have one winner
          G                  D        C       G  D C
And you know you've got to pull out front to win
 G             D     C        G
God knows the only time I'm winning
     D               G  D C
Is when I'm chasing Him

G D C


[Chorus]
      D                                 Bm
So I wish that I could say that at the close of every day
       C              D               G
I was happy with the way that I'm behaving

         C              D
'Cause Samson chased a woman
         G               C
And he chased the Philistines
     F                   A#
I'm not quite sure what Jonah chased
       C                  D
But I know he caught the sea
  C                    D
Cain, he chased the harvest
       G                C
While Abel chased the beasts
 Em                 D        C
David, he chased God's own heart
                            D  Bm
All I ever seem to chase is me

C D G D


[End Chorus]
     C                 D
And Jesus chased the moneymen
          G                 C
And he chased his Father's will
     F                A#
He chased my sin to Calvary
         C                D
And he caught it on that hill
  C                     D
Saul, he chased the Christians
           G                C
Till his blindness made him see
Em                  D         C
David, he chased God's own heart
                             C
All I ever seem to chase is me
