Not To Us by Chris Tomlin and Jesse Reeves (words and music) was written in 2001. It was recorded a half step lower. I have chord charts for this great song in the Key of G and Key of A. I wanted to focus this particular chord chart in the Key of C because I get lots of requests from beginners and also from those folks who may be longing to play in another Key other than C Major. Before we go on, let's take a look at this song and see if we know our chords and chord progression in C.
C Am7 The cross before me the world behind, No turning back raise the G banner high F C Csus C It’s not for me, it’s all for you C Am7 Let the heavens shake and split the sky, Let the people clap their G hands and cry
F C Csus C It’s not for us, it’s all for you C Fsus F Fsus F Not to us, but to your name be the glory C Fsus F Fsus F Not to us, but to your name be the glory C Am7 Our hearts unfold before your throne, the only place for those who G

What is so very cool about the melody is that you can harmonize the melody line in your r.h.
