Death In His Grave

(capo 2ªcasa) 

(intro) C G Am F (8X) 

(verso 1) 
C                       G 
Though the Earth Cried out for blood 
Am             F 
Satisfied her hunger was 
     C                 G 
Her billows calmed on raging seas 
        Am                F 
for the souls on men she craved 
C                  G 
Sun and moon from balcony 
Am                    F 
Turned their head in disbelief 
       C                   G 
Their precious Love would taste the sting 
    Am             F 
disfigured and disdained 


[Refrão]
 
    C         G 
On Friday a thief 
    F        C 
On Sunday a King 
 Am           G 
Laid down in grief 
     F          C 
But awoke with keys 
   Am            G 
Of Hell on that day 
           F            C 
The first born of the slain 
    Am          G 
The Man Jesus Christ 
      F            C 
Laid death in his grave

(verso 2) 
C                 G 
So three days in darkness slept 
    Am              F 
The Morning Sun of righteousness 
    C                  G 
But rose to shame the throes of death 
    Am             F 
And over turn his rule 
    C                  G 
Now daughters and the sons of men 
      Am             F 
Would pay not their dues again 
    C                  G 
The debt of blood they owed was rent 
         Am           F 
When the day rolled a new

F 
He has cheated 
Am 
Hell and seated 
G             F 
Us above the fall 
    F 
In desperate places 
    Am 
He paid our wages 
G                     F 
One time once and for all
