[Intro]
G Em G Em
[Verse 1]
G Em He was sitting on the front porch of a half-way house C G Chainin' cigarettes and drinkin' coffee G Em I was walkin' by on my way home C G Stopped and said, hello, how are ya Em A7 He looked at me and said, I've seen better days C D I looked at him and said, there's a better way
[Chorus 1]
G Three nails and a cross C G Equal forgiveness G Em Just like you, I was lost A7 Am7 D And that's hell to have to live with Em Baug I've sat on the front porch where you're sittin' now Em7 A7 I kept lookin' deep inside 'til I figured out G D G Three nails and a cross equal forgiveness
[Interlude]
G Em G Em
[Verse 2]
G Em She was sittin' on her bed crying crocodiles C G Sixteen ain't a good age to be pregnant G Em And she thinks mom and dad won't love her anymore C G Like the boy who swore he always would but doesn't Em A7 She turns and sees that Bible laying by her bed C D And she crumbles to her knees as she bows her head
[Chorus 2]
G Three nails and a cross C G Equal forgiveness G Em Lord help me 'cause I'm lost A7 Am7 D And that's hell to have to live with Em Baug I need you more than ever now, without a doubt Em7 A7 I've made a big mistake, can you help me out G D Em A7 Three nails and a cross equal forgiveness G D G Three nails and a cross equal forgiveness
