Better Broken Chords by Andrew and Mary Beth Jones

[Verse]
 
E                     
God I know you have a 
E/Ab                     B
reason for this pain I feel
           A
You are sovereign and 

you do all things well
             E                                     
You’re the only one who can 
                       B
mend a life that’s shattered
A                               
And God I sure could 
           A
use your help
               E                   
You have given grace 
              B
instead of healing
      F#m                                    
but maybe this is what it 
                   B
takes to feel you near me
 
 
[Chorus]

              E                       
If I’m better broken 
                 B
I have peace in knowing
            A
that I am living in 

the wisdom of God
                   E                         
and if I’m better hurting 
                   B
you are more than worthy
         A                                 
of the praise that 
                        A7
I can give from a broken heart
       F#m                           
if my story is for your glory 
       A              A
then I know its for my good
                B                         
If I’m better broken, 
                    A
I’ll be broken for you
 
 
[Verse]

           E             
I have hurt, 
            B
but now I see your mighty hand
A                  B                 
You are working wonders beyond 
      A
what I can understand
    E                 
You alone are worthy 
 B
of my praise
              A             
Whether you give 
           E
or take away
F#m               
I am just a man 
  A               B
I know that I am dust
              A                              
and if you want me in 
                       B
pieces still I will trust
 
 
[Chorus]

              E                       
If I’m better broken 
                 B
I have peace in knowing
            A
that I am living in 

the wisdom of God
                   E                         
and if I’m better hurting 
                   B
you are more than worthy
         A                                 
of the praise that 
                        A7
I can give from a broken heart
       F#m                           
if my story is for your glory 
       A              A
then I know its for my good
                B                         
If I’m better broken, 
                    A
I’ll be broken for you
 
 
[Ending]

         F#m              A                              
If my stories are for your glory 
                        B
then I know it’s for my good
A.              F#            
If I’m better broken, 
          B         E
I’ll be broken for you
 
(B,  E,  A,  E ending...)
