If you happen to be a place where in your [G] mind and in your heart you feel distant [Em] from the Father, you feel like He can't use you, [A] well these lyrics are just for you.
Well it was [E] battered and scarred and the auctioneer felt [A] it was hardly worth [E] his while
To [A] waste much [E] time on the old violin [B] but he held it up with a smile
He [E] said it sure ain't much but it's all we got left [A] I guess we ought to sell [B] it too
[F#] [A] Oh now who'll start the bid [E] on this old violin?
Just one more and [A] we'll be [D] through
And then he [A] cried, one, give me one dollar, who'll make it two?
[Bm] Only two dollars, [B] who'll make it three?
Three dollars twice, [E] now that's a good [D] price, who's gonna bid for me?
[A] Oh raise up your hand now, don't wait any longer, [Bm] the auction's about to end
[E] Who's got four, just one dollar more [A] to bid on [Bm] this old [F#m] violin?
[C#m] [D] Now [A] the air was hot [E] and the people stood around [D] as the sun was [A] setting low
And from the back of the [E] crowd a gray-haired man came forward and picked up the bow
He wiped the dust from that old violin [D] and he tightened [A] up the string
And then he played out a [E] melody pure and [D] sweet, sweeter than the angels [A] sing
And [E] then the music [F#m] stopped and the auctioneer, with a voice that was [E] quiet and low
He [C#m] said what am I bid [F#m] for this old violin?
And he held it [E] up with a bow
[F#]
And he cried, [B] one, give me one thousand, who'll make it two?
[C#m] Only two thousand, who'll make it three?
[F#] Three thousand twice, you know that's a good [E] price, who's gonna bid for me?
[B] And the people cried out, what made the [G#m] change?
We don't understand
[F#] And the auctioneer stopped and said with a smile, [B] it was the [F#] touch of the [B]
master's hand
[F#m] You [D]
[B] know there's [F#] many a man with his life out of [E] tune, battered and scarred with [F#] sin
And he's auctioned cheap to a thankless [E] world much like that [F#] old violin
[B] But then the master [F#] comes and that old foolish [E] crowd can never [C#m] understand
[B] The worth of a [F#] soul and the change that it [E] brought, just by one touch of the [F#] master's hand
Oh, then he cried [B] out, one, give me one thousand, who'll make it two?
[G#m] Only two thousand, who'll make it three?
[F#] Three thousand twice, you know that's a good [E] price, who's gonna bid for me?
[B] And the people cried out, what made the [G#m] change?
We don't understand
And [F#] the auctioneer stopped and said with a smile, [B] it was the touch
[E] It [B] was the touch of the [F#m] master's [D] [E]
hand
