Chords Iron Lung

By     :  Martin Smith

Key   :  A

Intro:
A   C#m/G#   A   C#m/G#
A   C#m/G#   A   C#m/G#
A   C#m/G#   A   C#m/G#


[Verse 1]
A       C#m/G#           A   C#m/G#
  I was born without a sound
A          C#m/G#      A             C#m/G#
  I didn't cry so they put me in an iron lung
A      C#m/G#           A   C#m/G#
  All alone and nearing death
A                  C#m/G#      
  But I heard Your heartbeat 
   A                C#m/G#
  Pulsing through my chest



[Chorus 1]
F#m    B7                     
Oh, oh,    
                   F#m   B7            
You took my breath away
                         F#m   A   E/G#
So I would learn to need You



[Verse 2]
A           C#m/G#            A   C#m/G#
  My mother prayed I'd make a noise
A           C#m/G#           
 'If You do this for me then 
  A               C#m/G#
  You can have my son back'
A           C#m/G#           A   C#m/G#
  My father made a deal with God 
A             C#m/G#           
  And then he left me stranded 
  A              C#m/G#
  In the arms of love


[Chorus 2]

F#m    B7 
Oh, oh,    
                      F#m   B7
You took my breath away
                    F#m7      B7
So I would learn to need You
                      F#m7  
To learn that I could never, 
                  B7
Ever live without You



[Chorus 3]

F#m7                    B7
Oh, You take my breath away
                    F#m7                  
You take my breath away, 
                    B7
And all those years ago
                 F#m7                     
I could feel You hide me, 
                       B7
In the shadow of Your wing
                    F#m7                      
And straight away I loved You, 
                         B7
'Cause You were singing songs

That someday I would sing

[Bridge]
          Amaj7      G#m7
There's a heartbeat,      
          Amaj7      G#m7
There's a heartbeat
          Amaj7      G#m7   
There's a heartbeat,      
          Amaj7      G#m7
Can you hear it
          Amaj7      G#m7  
You're my heartbeat,      
          Amaj7      G#m7
Can you hear it?
          Amaj7      G#m7 
You're my heartbeat,       
          Amaj7      G#m7
I can feel it
      F#m7/A
I can feel it

  And I heard the sound of Your voice

  I felt the breath in my lungs

  And I started to sing, 
                        E2
  I started to sing for You
F#m7/A                   E
  Forever I'll sing for You
