Stay – William McDowell

Original in F#. Capo 1, play in F.

Verse1
               F
I know what is like
                             Am
To be in the presence of the Lord
                  Bb
And not know what time it is
                    C
Because time stood still
                 F
But bodies were healed
              Am
And families restored
            Bb
Because we stayed here
                        C
In the presence of the Lord
 
Verse2
                        F
And no one had to say a word
                        Am
We couldn’t even make a sound
              Bb
And I’d give anything
                          C
For this treasure I have found
 
Prechorus
                   Dm   Bb
I never want it to end
 
Chorus
          F
So I say, stay
                    Am
I don’t want you to go
             Bb
My heart is burning
                        C
In the presence of the Lord
         F
Please stay
                    Am
I don’t want you to go
             Bb
My heart is burning
                        C
In the presence of the Lord
 
Bridge
    F       Bb
And I want more
C       Dm
I want more
        Bb     Gm
I want more
              C
Jesus I want more
 
Outro
          F
So I will stay
                   Am
Where else would I go
                     Bb
When my heart is burning
                  C
In your presence Lord
