Matthias Replaces Judas Showbread
So... I'm re-doing this because I'm a goober and did it in the wrong key. I'm pretty
this is right.
Standard Tuning
Capo 4
[C]it is so that my tran[Am]sgressions have born a withered fr[F]uit,
the sun has scorched the r[G]ising plants;
alas they have no r[C]oot, the bleached bones of [Am]animals bound by leather
s[F]trips,
dance through the air with lau[G]ghter as I wield this wicked [C]whip,
as you did warn me c[Am]arpenter, this world has weakened my h[F]eart,
so easily I d[G]isparage, self-seeking the work of my a[C]rt,
and there you have come to[Am] me at the moment I bathe in my s[F]orrow,
so in love with m[G]yself, sought after avoiding t[C]omorrow,
where do you find the l[Am]ove to offer he who betrays y[F]ou?
and offer to wash my f[G]eet as I offer to disobey y[C]ou,
your beauty does ber[Am]eave me, and how my words do fai[F]l,
so faithfully and d[G]utifully I award you with bet[C]rayal,
[Am]the weak and the down tr[F]odden fall on broken l[C]egs,
as I walk past a s[G]mile I cast, fervor in my s[Am]tead,
but my bones like pla[F]stic, do buckle backward n[C]ow,
I lay in this field by J[G]udas' bowels and anticipate the p[C]low,
I can not be f[F]orgiven; my wages will be p[Am]aid,
for those more lovely and adm[G]irable is least among the s[C]aved,
and where would I fit Je[F]sus?
what place is left for[Am] me?
the price of atonement is m[G]ore than I've found to offer up as my p[C]lea,
[C]Jesus my heart is all I [Am]have to give to yo[F]u, so weak and so u[G]nworthy,
this simply will not [C]do, no alabaster [Am]jar, no diamond in the r[F]ough,
for your body that was b[G]roken, how can this be en[C]ough?
[Am] [F]
yet in your arms and [G]in your heart forever I have s[C]tayed
[C]Your glory illumin[Am]ates my life, and no darkness will de[F]scend,
for you have loved me fo[G]rever, and your love will never e[C]nd
