Barre all Chords...use A Barre in the beginning, at the postlude E Barre
Intro: G#min B A#min E
Tab 1 (see below) comes in, then tab 2 on a second guitar...the tabs are
repeated and repeated and repeated
Towards the end of the Intro: C#min B G#min F# E D#min with tab 3
During the verses, Tab 1 is played through...halfway in Tab 2 enters
Verse 1:
G#min B A#min E
Jesus tie these hands, I used to think that everything I touched
G#min B E#min
Turned gold But it don't It turns cold
G#min B A#min E
And reason guides this man Like spring and fall And wind to sand
G#min B A E
I sway, I sway I cannot stand
Chorus:
C#min F# B E
What do I do? When it seems I relate to Judas more than you
C#min F# E#min
And I can't ever I can't ever see the end...
GBAEmin
Verse 2:
G#min B A#min E
Jesus Help me to see It's not about consequence It's peace
G#min B A#minE
And I won't seek I won't seek On my own knees
G#min B A#min E
And grace is over me It's true, I feel, I know it's real
G#min B A#miE
But will I live What I believe
Chorus
