Daddy's DNA

[Intro] D  E  A  D  E  A

               D                   E             A
I thought the world had something special I was missing
           D             E                  A
My daddy told me not to chase it, I didn't listen
        D                 E
I fell downhill a mile a minute
          A         F°   F#m
Before I knew it, I was livin'
     Bm                             E
In a pig sty a long, long way from home

        D              A
I went runnin' like a rebel
           E               F#m
Racked up debts I couldn't pay
        D                 A
I went dancing with the devil
           E           D9
With one foot in the grave
         D            A
How the Heaven did I get here?
         E       F°   F#m
Went and threw it all away
         D              A
All I've given You was trouble
           E             D9
All You've given me was grace

        D             E                 A
And the freedom I was chasing felt like prison
            D            E               A
Lord, I've done so many things, wish I didn't
          D              E
And after all the risky business
         A   F°     F#m
Could I ever be forgiven?
       Bm                           E
I'm afraid to even ask to come back home

              D              A
‘Cause I went runnin' like a rebel
           E               F#m
Racked up debts I couldn't pay
        D                 A
I went dancing with the devil
           E           D9
With one foot in the grave
         D            A
How the Heaven did I get here?
         E       F°   F#m
Went and threw it all away
         D              A
All I've given You was trouble
           E             D9
All You've given me was grace

        D              E                A
When I sobered up, and came back to my senses
        D             E                 A
I was too far gone to make up all the distance
           D                E
I gambled all that I'd been given
      A      F°        F#m
I was broke, alone and wishing
        Bm                            E
That I could turn around and go back home
        Bm                                    E
When I heard the sound of footsteps down the road

              D              A
And You came runnin' like a rebel
          E               F#m
Paid off debts I couldn't pay
          D                A
You went dancing with the devil
          E            D9
Sent that liar to his grave
         D                A
How the Heaven did I get here?
         E           F°   F#m
Where every sin has been erased
         D              A
All I've given You was trouble
            E           D
All You've given me is grace

( A  E  F#m  D  A  E )

           D                A
There was something in the marrow
        E                  F#m
Always coursing through my veins
       D                 A
Hidden deep beneath the rubble
       E       D9  Bm  D  E  A
Is my daddy's DNA
