Salvation Song Chords

C  D  G  x2
 
           G
And if you take my heart
      C
Don't leave the smallest part
        D               C                 G
I've no need to live if you're to come up gone
          G
And as my life turns to a song
           C
And if and when I treat you wrong
      D             C            G
No, I never want to hurt our family
 
            G
And I would give up everything
            C
No, this is not just about me
            D              C              G
And I don't know a plainer way to say it, babe
             G
And they may pay us off in fame
               C
Though that is not why we came
           D             
And I know well and good 
     C              G
that won't heal our hearts
 
            C
We came for salvation
             G
We came for family
            D                
We came for all that's good, 
       C               G
that's how we'll walk away
           C
We came to break the bad
           G
We came to cheer the sad
           D            
We came to leave behind 
    C              G
the world a better way
 
           G
Now if I'm walkin' through the rain
      C
And I hear you call my name
       D            C             G
I will break into a run without a pause
             G
And if your love laughs at your dreams
               C
Well, it's not as bad as it seems
       D          C               G
Either way one of them has got to go
           G
And if you take of my soul
        C
You can still leave it whole
          D             C               G
With the pieces of your own you leave behind
 
            C
We came for salvation
            G
We came for family
            D                
We came for all that's good, 
       C               G
that's how we'll walk away
           C
We came to break the bad
           G
We came to cheer the sad
           D            
We came to leave behind 
    C              G
the world a better way
 
            G
And I would give up everything
            C
And if you were to come up clean
            D               C             G
And see you shine so bright in a world of woe
             G
And they may pay us off in fame
            C
But that is not why we came
          D            C                 G
And if it compromises truth then we will go
 
            C
We came for salvation
            G
We came for family
            D                
We came for all that's good, 
       C               G
that's how we'll walk away
           C
We came to break the bad
           G
We came to cheer the sad
           D            
We came to leave behind 
    C              G
the world a better way
