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                         A#min        E
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#                           G#min        B     A#min   E
And I can't ever  I can't ever  see the end...


G#min    B      A#min     E

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#min         E
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#min              E
But will I live  What I believe


Chorus
