Intro:
G - E - Ab (x4)


Verse 1 (play verse riff):
I want pleasure in your sight
I want to subscribe to your delight
So hold on and see what I do for you
Oh by the way, did you see me dressed in my, my beautiful robe?

G - E - Ab (x2)

(play verse riff)
My head was bleeding so red
But of all the thorns in my crown, the roses blended instead
                  E
With my beautiful robe carries on, I'll carry on


Chorus:
C     D      E  G D/F#   C             D       E  G D/F#
I cut down a tree said, "Man would you look at me"
C          D         E         G D/F# C     D     E     G D/F#
I stuck my head in a thorn bush,      man I was deceived


G - E - Ab (x2)


Verse 2 (play verse riff):
Oh my brother, your hands are full of sores
But God bless you brother, my nails are longer than yours
I was crucified with Christ but how come I'm not dead
God gave me a cross but I made my own instead
             E
My beautiful cross carries on, I'll carry on


Chorus (same as before):
I cut down a tree, I nailed myself to the wood
I screamed in agony 'cause the glory wasn't so good


C - D - E - G - D/F#
C - D - E - G - D/F#
C - D - E - G - D/F#
C - D - E

(play C-D-E)
I fell to my knees and I remember the words of God pierced me so hard
"Your righteousness is like filthy rags" and I fell to my knees and said
                C   D  E           C   D  E
"God, my filthy robe,    my filthy robe
          C   D  E           C   D  E
My filthy robe,    my filthy robe"


Chorus (same as before):
I cut down a tree, I nailed myself to the wood
I screamed in agony 'cause the glory wasn't so good


Outro:
C - D - E - G - D/F# (x4)
G - E - Ab (x4)
