Everything I Prayed For

[Verso 1]
 
C 
I prayed for sunshine and I got rain 
Am 
I prayed for healing and still he passed away 
F 
I prayed for peace and got a hurricane 
              Am                               G 
Cried out for patience and got nothing but the wait 
C 
But it was in the downpour that I would grow 
Am 
It was the grieving that I would feel you close 
F 
It was in the storm I learned the letting go 
           Am                               G 
And in the questions found I didn't need to know 
 


[Refrão]
 
         Am G           F              C            Am      G 
Heaven's answers didn't come the way I thought they should, still 
         F               C           Am             G 
Could it be that somehow God's still good it wasn't what I wanted 
F          Em            Am             G              F 
But what I needed from it to see what I couldn't see before 
                         Am         G F C G/B Am G F 
God gave me everything I prayed for 
 


[Verso 2]
 
C 
I prayed for direction and I got lost 
Am 
Begged Him for breakthrough and slammed into a wall 
F 
But it was in the wilderness you found my heart 
           Am                              G 
And when I lost my life I finally found it all

         Am G           F              C            Am      G 
Heaven's answers didn't come the way I thought they should, still 
         F               C           Am             G 
Could it be that somehow God's still good it wasn't what I wanted 
F          Em            Am             G              F 
But what I needed from it to see what I couldn't see before 
                         Am         G F 
God gave me everything I prayed for 
C            Am         G F 
Everything I prayed for
