ALL YOU’VE EVER WANTED by CASTING CROWNS: LYRICS & CHORDS

INTRO: E – F#m – D – A (2x)

 

VERSE 1:

 

E                  F#m

I just looked up today

 

D                           A             E            F#m            D    A
And realized how far away I am from where You are

 

E                                     F#m
You gave me life worth dying for

 

D                                 A
But between the altar and the door

 

      E                           F#m
I bought the lies that promised more

 

D                      A
And here I go again

E        F#m             D     E          F#m             D   A

Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho … ho ho ho ho ho ho ho

 

 

VERSE 2:

 

E                    F#m
Lord, I know I let You down

 

     D                        A
But somehow, I will make You proud

 

    E                          F#m
I'll turn this sinking ship around

 

      D                          A
And make it back to You

E                                F#m
But all my deeds and my good name

 

            D                      A
Are just dirty rags that tear and strain

 

     E                  F#m
To cover all my guilty stains

 

        D                                 A
That You already washed away

 

CHORUS:

 

              E                           F#m   D                       A
('Cause) All You've ever wanted, all You've ever wanted

 

E                       F#m               D           A
All You've ever wanted was my heart

 

E                               F#m          D                                A
Freedom's arms are open, my chains have all been broken

 

     E                          F#m                        D
Relentless love has called me from the start

 

                                                 E       F#m  D   A
And all You wanted was my heart

 

VERSE 3:

 

         E                                     F#m
I was chasing healing when I'd been made well

 

       D                                         A
I was fighting battles when You conquered hell

 

E                                 F#m
Living free but from a prison cell

 

         D                     A
Lord, I lay it down today

      E                    F#m
So I'll stop living off of how I feel

 

       D                                   A
And start standing on Your truth revealed

 

E                   F#m
Jesus is my strength, my shield

 

       D                     A
And He will never fail me

 

BRIDGE:

 

                                                 Bm            F#m
No more chains, I've been set free, ho ho ho ho ho ho ho

 

E                                                             Bm            F#m            E
No more fighting battles You've won for me, ho ho ho ho ho ho ho

 

                                           Bm             F#m             E
Now in Christ, I stand complete, ho ho ho ho ho ho ho

 

 

ENDING:

 

A                                    E/G#

All You’ve ever wanted, All you’ve ever wanted

 

F#m                                               A/C#   D

All You’ve ever wanted was my heart
