Johnny Cash – The Nazarene (Guitar)

                A                  D           A
Caesar ruled Rome, and all its glory.

                  D         E
Every land called Alexander Great.

    A                     D   A
But no man can compare in any story

                          E           A
With the one man who controls so many fate.

     A
Yes, along the dusty road came The Nazarene.

     A
Baptized by John was The Nazarene.

     A
Preaching on the top of the mountain was The Nazarene.

     A
Followed by the multitude was The Nazarene.

                         D                     A
Tried and condemned they laid their stripes on Him.

                                 E                   A
But, like He said, back from the dead came The Nazarene.

A        D      A           D      A
Came The Nazarene. 

A                     D         A
Nothing good had ever come from Nazareth;

                        D      E
An unimportant place in Galilee.

        A                     D         A
But the soul of any man could fall into bondage,

                     E                A
And God had promised man could be set free.

    A
And then a long the dusty road came The Nazarene.

    A
Baptized by John was The Nazarene.

    A
Preaching on the top of the mountain was The Nazarene.

    A
Followed by the multitude was The Nazarene.

A                        D                     A
Tried and condemned they laid their stripes on Him.

                                 E                    A
But, like He said, back from the dead came The Nazarene.

A        D      A           D      A
Came The Nazarene. Came The Nazarene.

A        D      A           D      A
Came The Nazarene. Came The Nazarene.
