Simple yet often utilized in gospel music, the chords used are C, F, and G7. For this tune, a quiet down-down-up, down-down-up strumming rhythm functions well. Reflecting the thoughtful quality of the song, keep the strumming slow and steady. Stress the downstrokes to produce a consistent, anchoring rhythm that accentuates the words. Chord Transitions: The tune generally runs C, F, and G7 alternately. Pay very close attention to seamless transitions, especially from C to F and back. For novices, the F chord can be challenging; so, practice pushing down the strings neatly to prevent muffled or buzzed notes. Keep the strumming gentle in the verses and concentrate on timing of your chord changes. Maintaining the flow of the tune, the change from "He died there on the cross" (C to F) to "So this world would not be lost" (F to C) should go naturally. Chorus Playing Notes: The chorus stresses "Jesus died for me long ago." Playing this portion with a little more energy can help you to emphasize the importance of these lines by somewhat raising the strumming frequency. Take care, though, not to ruin the song's somber tone. Many of the poems finish with the line "Jesus died for me long ago". To underline the conclusion of the phrase and let the music diminish organically before continuing, let the C chord ring out at the end of each verse. Regular Mistakes: Rushing through chord changes: Spend time with every transition - especially between C and F - to guarantee each chord rings out clearly. Maintaining the reflected quality of the tune, keep your strumming light. Overstrumming might throw off the peace, contemplative quality. Song Facts: Reflecting Hank Williams' strong Christian conviction, "Jesus Died For Me" is a gospel ballad. The words of the song highlight the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross and the redemption it presents to followers. This is a strong work that calls to live a life that respects that sacrifice as well as a personal atonement. Hank Williams' repertory included a lot of gospel music, which highlighted the spiritual aspect of his work.
