Lyrics

The cit y was Je (Em7)ru 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 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;
