              Intro: F  Am  C  G 
 
verse 1:  
       F             Am 
Picked up the phone again 
        C            G 
Put it right back down 
          F            Am              
That was such a lame attempt 
           C          G  
To try to help you out 
      F                      Am 
If I said to myself I'm not scared I'd be lying 
       C                      G    
Don't know if I know what to say 
 
But I'm trying 
F              Am            G    
So I'm picking up the phone again 
 
  
 
F                    C   
I hear you fell down  I'm here to let you know 
Am            G 
Not giving up  not gonna let you go 
F               C 
I'm not judging  I'm just loving 
    Am                   G                   F     
Not pointing my finger  I'm reaching out my hand 
   G                       
I just want to help you stand 
F   Am   C   G 
Oh  oh  oh  oh 
 
Just want to help you stand 
F   Am   C   G 
Oh  oh  oh  oh 
 
 
verse 2:  
     F                    Am 
The tone that's in your voice 
       C      G 
I can recognize 
      F                Am  
The shaking from your choice 
       C       G 
I can empathize 
       F                     Am 
If I said I had never been there I'd be lying 
 C                      G 
Jesus picked me up when I was crying 
F           Am        
Broken down on the ground 
G 
That's why I'm calling you now 
 
 
 
F                    C   
I hear you fell down  I'm here to let you know 
Am            G 
Not giving up  not gonna let you go 
F               C 
I'm not judging  I'm just loving 
    Am                   G                   F     
Not pointing my finger  I'm reaching out my hand 
   G                       
I just want to help you stand 
F   Am   C   G 
Oh  oh  oh  oh 
 
Just want to help you stand 
F   Am   C   G 
Oh  oh  oh  oh

       F  
He'll meet you where you are 
    G 
He loves you where you are 
          Am 
He's not pointing a finger 
      C                      G 
He's just reaching out his hand (x2) 
 
He just wants to help you stand

    Am                   G                        
Not pointing my finger   
                       (x2) 
  
 
F                    C   
I hear you fell down  I'm here to let you know 
Am            G 
Not giving up  not gonna let you go 
F               C 
I'm not judging  I'm just loving 
    Am                   G                   F     
Not pointing my finger  I'm reaching out my hand 
   G                       
I just want to help you stand 
Am   F   C   G 
Oh  oh  oh  oh 
 
Just want to help you stand 
Am   F   C   G 
Oh  oh  oh  oh
