My Own Worst Enemy

• Em

Capo on first fret 
1
Em           D 
God help me get away 
Em                    C      Em 
Break the chains and set me free 
           D           Em 
From the other side of me 
         C* (One single downstroke and stop) 
I am my own worst enemy 

Intro-Em D G C x2 

Em 
I caught a glimpse in my rearview mirror 
G             D 
Of an old familiar face 
Em 
The very image coming in clearer 
G            D 
Of a past I can't erase 

C                  Em 
I could've sworn I put him in the ground 
Bmaj7 
Looks like he's found his way out 

Em            D 
God help me get away 
Em                    C      Em 
Break the chains and set me free 
           D           Em                 C 
From the other side of me 
Em                  D 
I can't fight this fight alone 
Em                  C     Em 
I'll never make it on my own 
       D          Em 
Lord Jesus rescue me 
         C* 
I am my own worst enemy 

Fill: Em 

Em 
I take a step and it's right behind me 
G                D 
Always fighting for control 
Em 
There's a war that's raging inside me 
G                  D 
I feel the battle for my soul 

C                        Em 
It's like my shadow is dragging me around 
Bmaj7 
And you are my only way out 

Chorus 
Em            C        Em                 C 
Lord help me feed the life I'm trying to live 
                 D                  C 
And starve the life I'm trying to leave 
          Em                C 
Help me believe the old is dead and gone 
Bmaj7 
And I am a new creation
