 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
