Stay With Me, Grace

+ Show full styles

[Intro: Gentle fingerpicked acoustic guitar]

[Verse ]
Love keys on the counter
Your note by the sink, says I’ll be home later
But it gives me time to think
I’ve been chasing every short cut, to a place I never find
Leaving you to hold the mortgage
On this messed up heart of mine

[Chorus: Soft harmonies, falsetto lead]
Stay with me, Grace, help me find my way
When the bottle wins the battle, and I can’t find my place
When I’m hiding from your face
Stay with me, Grace, if I’m slow to say I’m sorry
But I’m reaching for a change
Stay with me, Grace
Stay with me, Grace, Stay with me, Grace

[Verse]
You weather every winter blow
Like a quiet kind of prayer, steady and slow
Stack my failures in the closet
But you never leave ‘em there
You just want a man who shows up true
I’m still learning how to lay down
All the things that bury you

[Chorus: Layered harmonies]
Stay with me, Grace, help me find my way
When the bottle wins the battle, and I can’t find my place
When I’m hiding from your face
Stay with me, Grace, if I’m slow to say I’m sorry
But I’m reaching for a change
Stay with me, Grace
Stay with me, Grace, Stay with me, Grace

[Acoustic Guitar Solo]

[Bridge: Delicate falsetto]
I don’t deserve your kindness
I don’t deserve your name
But you’re painting little futures
With the pieces I have left
If there’s a road that leads us
Past the worst of what I been
Baby, take my shaking hand
Let me try again

[Verse]
I’m not much for hallelujahs
But I see them in this room
In the light that hits your shoulder
As you whisper, I choose you
I don’t want to lose what’s true

[Chorus: High harmonies, emotional falsetto]
Stay with me, Grace, help me find my way
When the bottle wins the battle, and I can’t find my place
When I’m hiding from your face
Stay with me, Grace, if I’m slow to say I’m sorry
But I’m reaching for a change
Stay with me, Grace
Stay with me, Grace, Stay with me, Grace

[Outro: Fading acoustic guitar and humming harmonies]
No more running to the end of the line
Just trying to be yours, in my own time
Oooooo, Grace show me the way

[End]
