[Intro]
G D A Bm A
G D A
 
[Verse 1]
        Bm                   G                D
I saw a man today, his whole world across his back
         A        Bm              G
A living monument opposed to my success
             Bm                     G                D
I tried to look into his eyes as he shuffled past my car
              A                Bm                  G
Sweat beading on his skin, his clothes and hair a mess.
 
       Em7                                     G
As the light turned green and I pulled away he slowly disappeared
       Em7                        G                   A
Just a memory of another chance I failed to show your love here
 
[Chorus 1]
G         D                A                Bm    A         G
I want to love because you loved. I want to give because you gave.
          D                 A                    Bm        A         G  D A
I want to reach my hand out to the lost 'cause I know your hand will sa-a-ave
Bm    A       G D A
Only you can sa-a-ave
 
[Verse 2]
        Bm             G              D
I have to wonder if I really want to know
       A              Bm           G
The struggle and the pain that others feel
       Bm                           G              E
Do I want to hear the stories I see echoed in their eyes
       A                   Bm             G
Or is this love I say that I'm reflecting even real?
 
        Em7                                G
As the light turns on inside my head and I slowly disappear
  Em7                                             G         A
I steel myself 'cause what You call for me is to show Your love here
 
[Chorus 2]
G         D                A                Bm    A          G
I want to love because you loved. I want to give because you gave.
          D                 A                    Bm        A         G
I want to reach my hand out to the lost 'cause I know your hand will save!
G         D                  A                Bm        A         G
I want to love just like you loved, I want to give just like you gave
G         D                   A             Bm   A      G  D A
I want to reach out with your hand, 'cause only you can sa-a-ave
 
[Bridge]
G   D              A
So, let me be your hands.
G D            A
Let me be your eyes.
G   D            A
You help me understand
              G              D                  A
That I'm your hands and feet hidden behind this frail human disguise
 
[Chorus 3]
G         D                A                Bm    A         G
I want to love because you loved. I want to give because you gave.
          D                 A                    Bm     A   G
I want to reach my hand out to the lost 'cause Only You can save!
G         D                  A                Bm        A         G
I want to love just like you loved, I want to give just like you gave
G         D                   A             Bm   A      G  D A
I want to reach out with your hand, 'cause only you can sa-a-ave
Bm   A       G  D A
Only you can sa-a-ave (x3)
 
[Outro]
             G  D A
Only you can sa - ave
Only you can sa - ave
Only you can sa - ave
Only you can sa - ave
             D
Only you can save
