  			Bbm  Gb Db Ab x3 
  
Bbm  Gb Db           Ab     Gb 
        I?d like to think if I was there 
Db               Ab 
In the garden as you prayed and cried 
                     Gb 
I would have stayed awake for you 
Db                Ab 
So you were not alone at that time 
        Gb        Bbm 
But in truth I can see, 
   Ab             
although I stand here now, 
  Gb        Gb 
a part of me 
 
 
 
    Bbm         Gb       
Was there in the garden 
  Db         Ab 
Asleep on the ground 
        Bbm      Gb 
When you needed companions 
             Db     Ab  
And there was no-one around 
       Bbm               Gb 
And I?m sorry I left you 
      Db        Ab 
To the anguish and pain 
    Gb 
And but for the grace of God 
Ab               Bbm    Gb      Db      Ab 
I?d fall asleep again 
 
 
 
Bbm  Gb  Db       Ab           Gb 
         I?d like to think if I was there 
Db                 Ab 
As the crowd demanded crucify 
                      Gb 
I would have been a louder voice 
Db                   Ab 
Calling out to them ?what is his crime? 
  Gb        Bbm 
But in truth I can see, 
   Ab             
although I stand here now, 
  Gb        Gb 
a part of me 
 
 
         
    Bbm           Gb 
Was there in the rabble 
          Db            Ab               
When your crime was declared 
      Bbm                 Gb 
And I cried out for your life 
    Db           Ab 
Let Barabbas be spared 
        Bbm          Gb 
And I?m sorry I left you 
       Db           Ab 
To the mocking and scorn 
     Gb 
And but for the grace of God 
Ab                      Gb/Db   Bbm         Gb 
I hear my angry voice alone 
 
 
          Gb/Db  Bbm                       Gb            
Were you there,  when they crucified the Lord?  
          Gb/Db  Bbm                       Gb 
Were you there,  when they crucified the Lord? 
 
 
 
Bbm  Gb Db Ab 
 
 
Bbm  Gb  Db       Ab         Gb 
         I?d like to think if I was there 
Db                        Ab 
Watching as you took your final breath 
                            Gb 
I?d have known you?d rise again 
Db                            Ab 
I would?ve remembered all the words you?d said 
  Gb        Bbm 
But in truth I can see, 
   Ab             
although I stand here now, 
  Gb       Gb 
a part of me 
 
 
    Bbm          Gb 
Was scared and embarrassed 
     Db          Ab 
As I watched you die 
   Bbm                Gb 
I believed you were king 
           Db          Ab 
But you did not even fight 
         Bbm     Gb 
And I?m sorry I forgot 
     Db           Ab 
All you?d said and done 
    Gb 
And but for the grace of God 
Ab                 Gb  Bbm      Ab  
I?d turn away and run 
 
 
Gb  Bbm Ab 
 
 
          Gb Bbm Ab                         Gb Bbm Ab 
I was there,        when they crucified my Lord 
          Gb Bbm Ab                         Gb Bbm Ab 
I was there,        when they crucified my Lord
