    G     Em7   C2    C(b5)

*When switching from the C2 chord to the C(b5), you can keep
your middle and ring fingers in the same position as the C2,
this helps make the switch faster and smoother


G                                Em7                           C2
He came for the lost and lonely, he came for the broken-hearted
C(b5)
Ready or not he came
G                                Em7                     C2
He came for the wounded soldier, he came for the cynical son
C(b5)
Ready or not he came
G               Em7                 C2   C(b5)
That they might know him for who he was
G                     Em7           C2     C(b5)
And see the hope that saturates his cause, inside they want to know


Chorus:
    G              D/F#            Em7   C2
The only song they want to hear is love
          G                 D/F#                Em7  C2
Cause the notes they try to play have been left out
        G              D/F#            Em7   C2
And the only song they want to sing is love
              G                D/F#               Em7  C2
Life's always taking more from them than it gives out


Verse 2:


Bridge:
         Am             C2              G
And I've never been so aware of what he did for me
       D/F#               Am
It hit home with me today
        C2                      G
What he did for us, will it hit home with us
         D/F#                      Am
Make the life we live to fade away
                C2                    G
That they might know to see that only he can sing
    D/F#                       Am     C2
The song of love that saturates, that saturates
