You Know Better Than I

  A         D          A
I thought I did what's right
  A         D       E
I thought I had the answers
  A         D         E      D
I thought I chose the surest road
    Bm                    E
But that road brought me here

A           D     A
So I put up a fight
A            D      E
And told you how to help me
    A         D      E     D
Now just when I have given up
    Bm               E
The truth is coming clear

[Chorus 1]

A     D   Bm         E
You know better than I
A   D        E
You know the way
     A   D       Bm          E
I've let go the need to know why
A    D          E        A
For You know better than I

[Verse 2]

   A        D      A
If this has been a test
  A      D       E
I cannot see the reason
    A     D       E       D
But maybe knowing I don't know
   Bm              E
is part of getting through

  A        D         A
I tried to do what's best
    A         D       E
But faith has made it easy
   A       D          E     D
To see the best thing I can do
      Bm               E
Is to put my trust in You.

[Chorus 2]

     A   D    Bm          E
For, You know better than I
A   D        E
You know the way
     A   D      Bm           E
I've let go the need to know why
A   D           E        A
For You know better than I

[Outro]

  F      C         G                  D
I saw one cloud and thought it was the sky
  F    C        G                    D
I saw a bird and thought that I could follow
    F     C       G                   D
But it was You who taught that bird to fly
             Bm
If I let You reach me
          E
Will You teach me?
