Intro: Em Bm C G
C Am D7 D
G C G C
G
1. They tell me Jesus died
C
For my transgressions
G
And that He paid that price
C
a long, long time ago
Am Em D
When He gave His life for me
Bm Em
On a hill called Calvary
Am
But there’s something else
D
that I want to know
[Chorus]
G Bm
Does He still feel the nails
G C
Every time I fail?
Am
Does He hear the crowd cry,
C D
“Crucify!” again?
G Bm
Am I causing Him pain?
G C
Then I know I’ve got to change
Am D
I just can’t bear the thought
G C
Of hurting Him
G
2. It seems that I’m so good
C
At breaking promises
G
And I treat His precious grace
C
So carelessly
Am Em D
But each time He forgives
Bm Em
What if He relives
Am D
The agony He felt on that tree?
(To chorus)
