 (A minor)  (C major) Can  (B major) you
Em 
 (E minor) ima gine it?
E 
Hanging there  (E major) bleeding to death
Em 
Wheezing  (E minor) for breath,
your stomach hurts
Am 
cause you got beat in the  (A minor) chest
You all bloody on your feet to your head
From the look of things,
C 
you  (C major) would think you'd be dead
B 
Em 
 (B major) But  (E minor) you not,
cause you gotta finish the work
Every second's like a minute,
every minute it hurts
Am 
You screaming  (A minor) in  pain,
screaming his name
Em 
Am 
Why  (E minor) have you forsaken  (A minor) me?
B 
This is the reason I  (B major) came
Em 
You're cry (E minor) ing inside,
but you can't cry from your eyes
Cause your face is so swollen
that it's driving you blind

Your back  (A minor) aches,
cause pressure is applied to your spine
C 
When you press up on your  (C major) feet,
Em 
B 
cause  (E minor) you're trying to  (B major) climb
Em 
Up  (E minor) the cross, just to get a gasp of air
And meanwhile,
everybody laughs and cheers
Am 
It's  (A minor) only been ten minutes,
but it feels like half a year
Em 
The Roman  (E minor) soldiers
B 
Em 
grab and  (B major) tear at your  (E minor) clothes
Leaving your prophet exposed, humiliated
It's how you die for the throne
Am 
And they  (A minor) witness,
at the sight of your death
And they watch you,
C 
B 
 (C major) as you're fighting for  (B major) breath
Em 
E 
Every  (E minor) insult feels like a  (E major) knife in your chest
Em 
And  (E minor) blood drips down your neck
from the spikes in your head
Am 
The crown  (A minor) adorns,
somebody sound the horn
Em 
C 
Cause  (E minor) the curtain from  (C major) the temple,
Am 
B 
yo they  (A minor) found it  (B major) torn
Em 
That means  (E minor) salvation's free,
he paid the fee
I once was blind,
but now he made me see
Am 
I went  (A minor) from peewee to bland
in the major leagues
C 
The temple was destroyed in  (C major) one day,
Em 
but  (E minor) raised in three

Em 
 (B major) Could  (E minor) you walk in his shoes,
drink from his cup?

die so that we live?
B 
If you could then your name is Je (B major) sus

 (B major) If you  (A minor) could then your name is Jesus
B 
E 
Em 
 (B major) Can you  (E major) imagine it,  (E minor) 
getting hit in the jaw
With people standing over you yelling
Am 
They take  (A minor) a stick and strike
you over the head
Em 
C 
Over  (E minor) and  (C major) over and over again
B 
Em 
 (B major) They beat  (E minor) you down,
they smile when they see you frown
E 
Em 
 (E major) They spit  (E minor) in your face,
laugh as you bleed in the ground
Am 
You try to  (A minor) get up, but you can barely walk
So they force another man
to carry the cross
B 
Em 
 (B major) You've been  (E minor) condemned,
all you did is give to men
You live for them,
but they would rather live for sin
Am 
You never  (A minor) fuck back,
but you get whipped again
C 
So hard that it  (C major) rips your skin
B 
E 
Portrayed  (B major) by the kiss of  (E major) a friend,
Em 
 (E minor) slain by the fists of men
On a scale of 1 to 5, the pain gets a 10
Am 
But  (A minor) you haven't even felt the half,
felt the wrath
Em 
C 
Un (E minor) til you feel the  (C major) cross
B 
rip against your back (B major) 
Em 
Thoughts  (E minor) of life and death
are running through your mind
And splinters from the water
running through your spine

It's  (A minor) the worst in any story
in the New York Times
They found you guilty
C 
an (C major) d never even knew your crime

they stand and stare
And watch as you hang like
E 
a chandelier (E major) 
Am 
Can't  (A minor) you bear the nails
in both your legs?
Both your arms,
C 
 (C major) even though you know they wrong?
B 
Em 
 (B major) Can you  (E minor) ima gine it?
E 
That's why  (E major) I wrote this song
Em

Am 
C 
but it's you if the joke is on  (A minor)  (C major)

Em 
 (B major) They drove  (E major) nails through  (E minor) his hands,
E 
you could  (E major) see the blood squirt
Now I know what they mean
Em 
when they say that love  (E minor) hurts
Am 
Imagine  (A minor) torture,
Em 
only this is much  (E minor) worse
Just the thought makes me
E 
wanna hit the ground and hug  (E major) dirt
Em 
Why'd  (E minor) he do it for me?
I would've done it for him
I'm not a righteous man,

 (E major) I'm  (A minor) not clean,
I've got dirt stuck to my skin
Em 
C

so I cuss and I grin
B 
Em 
 (B major) I  said,  (E minor) I hate you,
and he told me that he loved me
I stabbed him in his back,
and he turned around and hugged me
Am 
They  (A minor) beat him,
when instead they should've
mugged me
B 
Should've  (B major) left me on the cross
and watched the blood leak
E 
My  (E major) tongue speaks,
Em 
 (E minor) all I do is curse and lie
That's why I deserve to die
Am 
Go to hell,  (A minor) man, I should be the first to fry
B 
Em 
But  (B major) they gave him  (E minor) the blame
B 
like he was worse than  (B major) I
Em 
Worse  (E minor) than he, worse than she
Straight up, cold -blooded murder
in the first degree
E 
Am 
 (E major) You  (A minor) ain't gotta go to church
to believe it
Cause you heard it from me
Just close your eyes,
B 
think of the murderous  (B major) scene
