Capo 1st fret
 
 
[Intro]
C   F
 
 
[Verse 1]
C
Yeah I like it easy
C
But that’s not how it’s been
    F
I’m at that part of the movie when the good guy might not win
C
Did I take a wrong turn?
C
Why do You have me here?
  F
I want that happy ending
F
Not this one where I’m in tears
    G    A       F
And yeah we both know
 
 
[Chorus]
                C
If it was up to me
C
There’d be no gravel roads
C
No wounds, no blisters on my soul
F
Pain might come, but it wouldn’t come for me
                Am
If it was up to me
Am
I’d take the easy ride
        G
But I’d miss the grace that changed my life
      F
Thank God I’m not the one in charge of things
    Am             Em                    F
I’d never know how good Your plans could be
                C
If it was up to me
 
 
[Verse 2]
C
If it was up to me I’d never taste the grace
C
That meets me where I am
            F
Or meet the God who came and picked me up and taught me how to stand
   C
He always has a purpose
C
Through the joy and suffering
       F
I’d be crazy not to trust Him
F
With everything
 
 
[Chorus]
                C
If it was up to me
C
There’d be no gravel roads
C
No wounds, no blisters on my soul
F
Pain might come, but it wouldn’t come for me
                Am
If it was up to me
Am
I’d take the easy ride
        G
But I’d miss the grace that changed my life
      F
Thank God I’m not the one in charge of things
    Am             Em                    F
I’d never know how good Your plans could be
                C
If it was up to me
                F
If it was up to me
 
 
[Bridge]
C
Your ways are higher
C
Your ways are higher
F
You know what You’re doing with me
Am
Your ways are higher
G
Your ways are higher
F
Put me where You want me to be
G
Yeah
Am C    F
We both know
 
 
[Chorus]
                C
If it was up to me
C
There’d be no gravel roads
C
No wounds, no blisters on my soul
F
Pain might come, but it wouldn’t come for me
F
(No, it wouldn’t come for me)
                Am
If it was up to me
Am
I’d take the easy ride
        G
But I’d miss the grace that changed my life
      F
Thank God I’m not the one in charge of things
    Am             Em                    F
I’d never know how good Your plans could be
                C
If it was up to me
C
(Up to me)
 
 
[Outro]
C
Yeah
                F
If it was up to me
F
