Chords for Johnny Cash | 'Why Me Lord' | Testimony Song with Lyrics | written by Kris Kristofferson

Thank you very much. _ _ _
Thank you very much.
I've been so blessed in my life.
I want to thank God for the salvation that we've got through accepting Jesus Christ our
Lord and I want to say publicly to you, _ the folks here gathered tonight, _ to the fans and
to my friends in the music business, _ Jesus Christ is Lord in my life.
Jesus Christ is Lord.

_ _ _ Mr.
Earl Pooble on piano, Marty Stewart on bass, we'd like to do a song that kind of
asks the question, what did I do to deserve all the blessings you've given me, Lord?
Why me, Lord?
[G#m] [F#] Why _ [E] _ [B] me,
_ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ [E] Lord?
What have [F#] I ever [A] done to deserve [F#] [E] even one of [B] the blessings I've [B] known? _ _
Why [E] me, Lord?
What did I [G#m] ever [A] do that was worth love [E] from you _ [B] and the kindness [E] you've shown?
[F#] _ _ _
[G#] [A] Lord, help me, Jesus.
[E] I've wasted it.
So help [B] me, Jesus.
I know what [E] _ _ _ _ [G#] _
[A] I've done.
Now that I know that [E] I've needed you, so help me, [B] Jesus.
My soul's in your [E] hands.
_ _ Try me, Lord.
If you think there's [A] a way that I can [E] repay _ what I've taken [B] from you, _ _ maybe, [E] Lord, _ I could
show [A] someone else what I've been through [E] myself on my way back to you. _ _
[A] Lord, help me, Jesus.
[E] I've wasted it.
So [C#m] help me, [B] Jesus.
I know [E] what I am. _ _ _ _
[A] Now that I know that [E] I've needed you, so help [B] me, Jesus.
My soul's in [E] your hands.
_ _ [C#m] _
_ [B] Jesus, my soul's in your [G#m] hands. _
[F#m] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
