[Intro]
A C#m/G# A C#m/G#
A C#m/G# A C#m/G#
A C#m/G# A C#m/G#

[Verse 1]
A C#m/G# A C#m/G#
I was born without a sound
A C#m/G# A C#m/G#
I didn't cry so they put me in an iron lung
A C#m/G# A C#m/G#
All alone and nearing death
A C#m/G#
But I heard Your heartbeat
A C#m/G#
Pulsing through my chest

[Chorus 1]
F#m B7
Oh, oh,
F#m B7
You took my breath away
F#m A E/G#
So I would learn to need You

[Verse 2]
A C#m/G# A C#m/G#
My mother prayed I'd make a noise
A C#m/G#
'If You do this for me then
A C#m/G#
You can have my son back'
A C#m/G# A C#m/G#
My father made a deal with God
A C#m/G#
And then he left me stranded
A C#m/G#
In the arms of love

[Chorus 2]
F#m B7
Oh, oh,
F#m B7
You took my breath away
F#m7 B7
So I would learn to need You
F#m7
To learn that I could never,
B7
Ever live without You

[Chorus 3]
F#m7 B7
Oh, You take my breath away
F#m7
You take my breath away,
B7
And all those years ago
F#m7
I could feel You hide me,
B7
In the shadow of Your wing
F#m7
And straight away I loved You,
B7
'Cause You were singing songs
