Pedestal Lyrics

PEDESTAL BY SHERRI YOUNGWARD
This song really spoke to my heart; we need to be careful to not let
others take God's place in our lives, and if we really love them like
we think we do, we need to be willing to let them go in Christ, to love
and know them as God would have us to, for only He knows our hearts and
our true needs. God bless you all!
Chords: Am C2 C9 D Em G
C2 is: 5th string 3rd fret, 4th string 2nd fret, 2nd string 3rd fret, and
1st string 3rd fret, C9 is the same except without the 1st string 3rd fret
If anyone knows what the real fingerings for C2 and C9 are please e mail
them to me, thanks!
(Instrumental intro: Em->C9 x3 then G maj->D)
I held you so high on a pedestal
when you fell you had a long way to go
when you fell how was I to know
that I'd fall with you?
Em C9 lead in: G D
I held you too high (x3)
(chorus)
It's a long way down
but finally I'm landing on solid ground
and that's what it took for me
(VERSE 2)
Who was I to think I could own you
I'm ashamed to say that I tried
If losing you is what it cost to love you
well I'll say goodbye
Em C9 lead in: G D
I held you too high (x3)
(repeat chorus)
add:And it hurts me so to let you go
But I know I'll be alright
cuz only God can hold this place in our lives
(Instrumental: play Em C9 G D x3 then Am)
How was I to know loving you would mean letting you go?
How was I to know loving you would mean letting you go?
How was I to know loving you would mean I'd have to let you go?
(repeat chorus 2x) add: I held you too high (x3) end on G chord
