No Capo
INTRO F2 | Bbmaj7/F | Dm2 Fmaj7/C | Bb2
Verse 1:
F2 Fsus
Alas, and did my Savior bleed
Dm C6 Bbmaj9
And did my Sovereign die?
F/A Bb2 Csus Dm
Would He devote that sacred head
Gm F2 C2/E Bb/D C
For such a worm as I?
F2 Fsus
Was it for sins that I had done
Dm C6 Bb
He groaned upon the tree?
F/A Bb C Dm
Amazing pity, grace unknown
Gm7sus C7sus Fsus F
And love beyond degree
Chorus:
Am7 Dm
My God, why would You shed Your blood
Gm7 F/A F/Bb Bb6 C
So pure and undefiled
Am7 Bbmaj7 F/A
To make a sinful one like me
Gm Csus C F2 | Bbmaj7/F |
Your chosen, precious child?
Verse 2:
F2 Fsus
Well might the sun in darkness hide
Dm C6 Bbmaj9
And shut His glories in
F/A Bb2 Csus Dm
When Christ, the mighty Maker, died
Gm7 F2 C/E Bb/D C
For man, the creature’s, sin
Dm2 C6
Thus might I hide my blushing face
Bb Am G2
While His dear cross appears
F/A G/B A/C# Dm
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness
Gm2 C Bb/D C/E F
And melt my eyes to tears
Chorus:
Am7 Dm
My God, why would You shed Your blood
Gm7 F/A F/Bb Bb6 C
So pure and undefiled
Am7 Bbmaj7 F/A
To make a sinful one like me
Gm Csus C F2 | Bbmaj7/F | Dm2 C6 | Eb2 | F2 |
Your chosen, precious child?
(Repeat Chorus)
