Lyrics

The cit y was Je (Em7)ru on ly he sa lem;

The time was long a (G7sus)go.

The peo ple called Him (Em)Je to sus,

the crime was the (G#dim)love He showed.

And I’m the one to (Em)blame;

I caused all the (E7)pain.

He gave Him self

the day He wore my (Fmaj7)crown.

He brought me love that (Em7)through on ly he could give;

I brought Him cause to (G7sus)cry.

And though He taught me (Em)how the live,

He I taught Him (G#dim)how to die.

And I’m the one to (Em)blame;

I caused all the (E7)pain.

He gave Him self

the day He wore my (Fmaj7)crown.

(F)crown.

He could have (Dm)called

His ho ly (F)Fa ther

and said, (F)“Take me a way, please (C)take me a way.” He could have (Dm)said,

“I’m not (G#dim)guil ty,

and I’m (Am)not gon na stay, I’m (G7sus)not gon na pay.”

(Fmaj7)crown.

I’m the one to (Em)blame.

I caused all the (E7)pain.

He gave Him self

the day He wore my (Fmaj7)crown.
