Common Garments
[Intro]
F# C# F# C# G#
[Verse 1]
C# F# C#
One day a roman soldier, in a shameful gambling game
F# C# D#m G#
Won the blood stained garment, that once had clothed my King
F# G# C# F# B F#
Just a cheap robe of linen, no great value did it hold
C# G# C# A
But when worn by the Master, it was worth more than gold
[Verse 2]
D G D
You see a few days before, this old garment had changed the life
G D Em A
Of a tired and helpless woman, who'd believed with all her might
G A D G C G
She'd reached out and touched it, with the hope to be restored
D A D
She knew this plain old garment, was the vesture of the Lord
[Chorus]
G A D A D
God uses common garments, to do uncommon things
G A D Bm E E7 G A
And God uses common people, to live out His uncommon dreams
G A D F# Bm D
It’s not what you are now that matters, you see, it’s what He can make you to be
G D Bm
Cause if God can take an old common garment and change a life
G A D A#
Then surely He can use you and me
[Verse 3]
D# G# D#
You see we are the reason, that Jesus came to die
G# D# Fm A#
And we have been chosen, to send forth His light
G# A# D# G# C# G#
So it doesn't matter, if your worth is great or small
D# A# D#
God needs some willing vessels, just common garments that's all
[Chorus]
G# A# D# A# D#
