On yesterday, a friend of mine came up and asked me if I could play a song with her on the piano at our choir anniversary. I said sure, and she handed me a CD and told me which track the song was on. My first thought was, looks like im gonna be beggin my LGM family for chords again
. But something was tellin me to just sit down and listen to the song, try it myself first. After about an hour, I was just like, 8O did I do that?!? And here is what I came up with.

This is is pretty much the whole chords to the song. pretty simple, I know.
Here are the rest of the lyrics.
In his arms, I feel protected
In his arms, never disconected
In his arms, I feel protected
There's no place I'd rather be.
In your arms, I feel protected
In your arms, never disconected
In your arms, I feel protected
There's no place, I'd rather, be.
(This line repeats 3 times until the end of the song. The accidental jumping that they do at the choir at the end, I couldn't figure it out, but this is how I'm gonna end it)

)
I say thank you to you, LGM, for helping me chord my first song ever, thanks to your patience with myself and everyone else on this site who have asked you for help, even though we can be frustrating and irritating sometimes :lol:
I say thank you to God for giving me the patience to absorb and learn everything that this site has taught me and for giving me the gift to play the insturments I play and the mind to WANT to play them.
So, Thank you LGM, and thank you God
