[Intro]
G Em7
[Verse]
G
Never been a stranger to nights in the county jail
Em7
Been there a time or two, ain't proud of it myself
G
Might smoke a little weed, I've heard the grass is green
Em7
There on the other side, ain't always what it seems
[Pre-Chorus]
G
But I won't hide behind a thousand lies
Em7
At least I know who I am
[Chorus]
G
Nail me to the cross outside
Em7
Of your ivory tower where you sit so high
C
On that horse you roam
D G
'Cause I stand here alone
G
So heave me with the stones you cast
Em7
Your shadow looks back while you stare through glass
C
You don't think I know
D G G
I'm a jester beforе your throne
[Verse]
G
How's it feel up there? Holy of and thou
Em7
To livе without a care, perfect in and out
[Pre-Chorus]
G
I won't hide behind a thousand lies
Em7
At least I know who I am
[Chorus]
G
Nail me to the cross outside
Em7
Of your ivory tower where you sit so high
C
On that horse you roam
D G
'Cause I stand here alone
G
So heave me with the stones you cast
Em7
Your shadow looks back while you stare through glass
C
You don't think I know
D G G
I'm a jester beforе your throne
[Outro]
G Em7
Hmmmm, hmm hmm hmm
Em7 C D G
Hmmm mm mmmmmm mm
...Through faith
Through faith it is your faith that has saved you
There's nothing that you have done yourselves
But is a beautiful gift of God
Not because of you so that no man can boast of his goodness
It is because of the death of Christ ....
