            Steven Curtis Chapman - I Will Be Here
I was looking for a version of this song with the chords for finger picking but they 
mostly weren't accurate enough, so I decided to write this one, based on some tabs I have.
Included the chords the way I play them (might be slightly different from normal).
Chords with underscores are 2/4 beats.
Chords:
D2 - xx0230
G6 - 320020
Bm - x2x230
A - x02220
G - 320022
Em7 - 022020
D/F# - 2x0232
A7 - x0x020
F#/A# - x12x20
Asus - x02230
D2/F# - 2x0230

D2                        A    D   A/C#   Bm       A     G
  Tomorrow morning if you wake up and the sun does not appear
Em7  A               D2   G6
I-   I-    I will be here
D2                       A        D     A/C#   Bm       A       G
  If in the dark we lose sight of love hold my hand and have no fear
      Em7  A               D2   D
Cause I-   I-    I will be here
[Chorus]
          Bm             E               A
I will be here, when you feel like being quiet
         D/F#               G            Em7
When you need to speak your mind, I will listen
      F#        Bm             E                 A
And I will be here, when the laughter turns to crying
            D/F#                 G                  Em7    A
Through the winning, losing, and trying, we'll be together

Cause I will be here
[Verse]

I-   I-    I will be here
D2                       A
  As sure as seasons are made for change
    Bm            A        G
Our lifetimes are made for years
   Em7 A               D2   D
So I-  I-    I will be here
[Chorus]
          Bm                E         A
I will be here, and you can cry on my shoulder
         D/F#                  G             Em7
When the mirror tells us we're older, I will hold you
    F#          Bm       E                 A
And I will be here, to watch you grow in beauty
             D/F#                   G
And tell you all the things you are to me
          Em7
I will be here

To you and to the One who gave you to me

Our lifetimes are made for years
   Em7  A    F#/A#  Bm
So I-   I-   I will be here
           Em7    Asus     A
We'll be together
