You know our favorite numbers on the Wilbur Brothers show each week are the old-time hymns not too long ago
Loretta Lynn recorded a special selection in one of her long play albums that I guess she gets more requests for than any other number
She's ever recorded
Called the third man today.
We have asked Loretta to do the third man for you
Last night I dreamed
[B]
[C] Walk [G] up [Bm] Calvary's lonely hill
The [G] things I saw [B] with my [C]
eyes
Could [G] not [A] have been more [Bm] real
[G] I saw upon three crosses
[C] Three men in agony
[Em] Two [Bm] cried out for mercy
And [D] [G] the third [F#] man looked [A] at me
[D] And [G] oh the hurt in this man's eyes
Just broke my heart in [B] two
[G] It [C] seemed that [G] I could hear him say
[Bm] I'm doing this for [G] you
I knelt [A] beneath the third man's cross
[Bm] [G] And slowly bowed my head
[Em] I [C]
reached out to touch his [G] feet
And it stained my hand with red
[D]
And when I heard him cry in [Bm] pain
I [G] raised my eyes to see
The blood [Bm] spilled from a third man's side
[G] [B] And some of it [G] spilled on me
[C]
The [G] third man wore a crown of thorns
Spikes held him to the tree
I heard him say
Oh God, my God
[B] [Em] Hast thou forsaken me?
[C]
And there [G] was in a mighty crowd
The ones who mocked him [D] cried
Said King, [Bm] save thyself if thou art king
[G] And then the third man died
[B] Suddenly [G] I heard a thunder roar
[B] I saw lightning [G] pierce the sky
[D]
The third man was [G] still hanging there
And I began [Bm] to cry
[G] I saw the boulders fall
And heard the [C] breaking of the ground
Then I awoke
Though I dreamed
I touched my cheek
[D] And found
[G] My eyes were wet
Where [B] I had [Bm] cried
[Em] [G] A dream [D] I wished I [G] knew
[Bm] I [G]
still can hear
[B] The [B] third [C] man say
[G] I'm doing this [Bm]
for [G] you
