PRISM (2013)

**So, at this point in time, this song hasn't been released and all I've had to 
work off is her live performance at the iTunes Festival so there may be a few 
mistakes (especially in the lyrics). And as we all know, ultimateguitar likes to 
mess around with the spacing of the chords so good luck with that. Enjoy**

[INTRO]

Gmsus2  Eb      Bb
Gmsus2  Eb      F

[VERSE 1]

Gm    Eb                Bb
I was 27 surviving my return to saturn,
Gm         Eb                    Bb     F
A long vacation didn't sound so bad.
Gm                 Eb                         Bb
I was full of secrets locked up tight like iron mountain,
Gm              Eb                           F
Running on empty - so out of gas.


[PRE-CHORUS]

Eb
Thought I wasn't enough,
Gm                      Bb
Found I wasn't so tough
                                     F
laying on the bathroom floor.
Eb
We were living on a fault line 
Gm                                  Bb
and I felt the fault was all mine.
                                F
couldn't take it any more.


[CHORUS]

Eb       Bb             F                             Gm
By the grace of god  (There was no other way)
Eb              Bb              F                  Gm
I picked myself back up. (I knew I had to stay)
Eb              Bb      Dm              Gm
I put one foot in front of the other 
        Eb                 Bb
and I looked in the mirror and 
F                Gm
decided to stay.
Eb                       Bb
Wasn't gonna let love 
            F
take me out that way.


Gmsus2  Eb      Bb


[VERSE 2] 
I thank my sister for keeping my head above the water
when the truth was like swallowing sand.
Now every morning hope 
there is no more mourning, oh I 
can finally see myself again.
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/k/katy_perry/by_the_grace_of_god_crd_ver_2.html ]
[PRE-CHORUS 2) 
I know I am enough,
possible to be loved.
It was not about me.
Now I have to rise above,
let the universe call the bluff.
Yeah, the truth will set you free.

[CHORUS]

Eb      Bb              F                            Gm
By the grace of god (There was no other way)
Eb              Bb              F                   Gm
I picked myself back up. (I knew I had to stay)
Eb              Bb      Dm              Gm
I put one foot in front of the other 
        Eb                  Bb
and I looked in the mirror and 
F               Gm 
decided to stay.
Eb                       Bb
Wasn't gonna let love 
              F  F#dim

I put one foot in front of the other

Looked in the mirror

Eb      Bb              F
By the grace of god (There was no other way)

I picked myself back up. (I knew I had to stay)

I put one foot in front of the other

and I looked in the mirror and
F                Gm
decided to stay 
Eb                       Bb
wasn't gonna let love 
              F
take me out that way
