Five Candles by Jars of Clay


Verse:
E C#m7
A promise or a dare

A B
I would jump if I knew you'd catch me

E C#m
Staring over the edge

A B
I can't tell if you'll be here for me

A
I close my eyes and make a wish

C#m7
Turn out the lights and take a breath

D
Pray that when the wick is burned

A B E
You would say that it's all about love


Chorus:

E D
You were there when I needed you

A E
You were there when the skies broke wide, wide
open

E D
You were there when I needed you

A E
You were there when the skies broke wide, wide
open

Verse:
E C#m B
You were never here

E C#m
I remember you said

A B
Love was more than your good intentions

A
Empty boxes on the floor

C#m7
Things I never asked you for

D
I pray that when the wick is burned

A B E
You would say that it's all about love


[Chorus]

D A E A#m7add5 D A
I can't see the promise of

C#m7 A#m7add5
Excuses you fall upon

D A
I pray to God not holding on

B B# A A#m7add5 A
B# A
To things you've left undone


[Chorus x 2]

E
You were there when I

D
You were there when I

A E
You were there when I needed you
