[D] [A] [D] [G] [A]
[D] [G] [C] [D]
As a young man [Gb] while [Gbm] still at home
[Bm] [A] Working at the [G] family trade
[D] He [Em] put aside some finished wood
His two [G] calloused [A] hands [G] just [A] made
[D] And as he reached to pick [Gbm] his hammer up
[G] He turned a little [Gm] pale
Oh, [D] he had [Bm] calvary on [Em] his mind
[B] Every [G] time [D] he drove a nail
Each time [G] he walked past a hill
Big [D] enough to hold a [G]
[D] cross
He knew someday [Em] a borrowed tomb
[G] [A] Was the price [D] my soul would cost
Still he worked [G] at his father's side
[D] [G] While the years [D] lay [A]
[Bm] unveiled
[D] He thought [Em] of calvary
[G] Every time he [D] drove [Gbm] a [D] nail
[G] [A] [G] [A] [Abm] [Bb] He [Eb]
could feel the nails [Gm] rip through his hands
[Cm] [Bb] As he brought [Ab] his hammer down
And [Fm] he knew in [C] just a few [Ab] short years
He would wear a porn-filled [Bb] crown
[Eb] And when he thought about [Gm] Gethsemane
[Ab] He knew his friends [Abm] would fail
Oh, [Eb] he had [Cm] calvary [Fm] on [Ab] his mind
Every [Eb] time he drove a nail
Each time [Ab] he walked past a hill
Big enough to [Eb] hold a cross
He knew someday [Fm] a borrowed tomb
[Ab] [Bb] Was the price [Eb] my soul would cost
Still he worked [Ab] at his father's side
While the [Eb] years lay [Bb] unveiled
[Cm] [Eb] He [Fm] thought of calvary
[C] Every time [Eb] he drove a nail
And now he's gone [Ab] to his father's side
[Eb] Where [Ab] his glory [Eb] is [Bb] unveiled
[Cm] [Eb] He [Fm] thought of you and [Ab] me
[Eb] Every time he drove [Gm] a nail
[Ab] [Bb] [Eb]
[Ab] [Bb] [Eb]
