      Old as the hills, new  e v e r y d a y 
      .    |    Gm .        . . |Dm . 
It’s in the bones like it’s DNA, 
   .        . |F           .     .    .         |Bb . . 
First taste is sweet ‘til it rots in your mouth 
 .     |  Gm      .    .        .   |Dm . 
Another old friend who rats you out 
  .     . |  F     .     ..  |Bb . 
All of the time in this life 
    .       .  |   Gm    . ..  |Dm 
Can’t loose the ties that bind 
.      .      . |     F  .    .   .     |Bb . . 
They shackle our feet, we trip, we fall 
  .  |Gm . . .| 
We crawl

Then you  rescued me, rescued me 
C       .    .      .     |Gm   . . 
Lord, with a touch of your hand 
 .     |Bb     .    . .   |F . 
Another captive free again 
   .     . |  C        .  .     .   |    Gm . . .|Bb.. 
Who else in heaven could do this but you? 
   |F      .    .      .  | 
You rescued me, rescued me 
C       .    .       .  |Gm   . . 
Lord, with a love out of mind 
  .    |Bb    .  .     .    |F .

Everyday I am rescued again

      Over the years your nature’s way 
   .      |Gm      .   .           . |Dm . 
Is turning wrongs into roles you play 
     .    .     |F     .     .   .       |Bb . . 
Caught in a spell that’s  o v e r c a s t 
    .   |    Gm     .    .       .   |Dm . 
You gain perspective, it doesn’t last 
  .    .  |  F     .     .. |Bb . 
All of the time in this life 
    .       .  |   Gm    .    .   . |Dm 
Can’t loose the ties that blind you 
.         .  .  |  F    .  .   .|   Bb . . 
They’re new everyday, old as the fall 
 .      |Gm . . .| 
The fall 
 
2/4

Every day, every way, every 
 
|Gm .  .  .     |F  . .   . |Gm . 
      Every cheap imitation 
.      . |    F  .      .      . |Gm . 
All of my  i m a g i n a t i o n
