Chords

[Intro] G [Verse 1]
G           D           C
It happened in the garden first

G         D           C
The enemy tried to bend Your Word

G                 D
From the mouth of the deciever

C                              G
Said the fruit was even sweeter

G              D           C
And that you'd never break the curse
[Chorus]
                G      D
But that lie is empty, empty,

C            G
Empty as the grave

            G     D                C                G
You claimed every victory when the stone was rolled away,

         G             D
And even death has lost its sting

         C        G
Lost its power over me

            G      D      C
That lie is empty, empty, empty

                 G    D    C    G
Empty as the grave
[Verse 2]
G            D             C
And then You walked the wilderness,

G             D             C
hell tried to find its voice again

G             D
Tempted Jesus with an altar,

C                                  G
sent the worlds what He could offer,

              D               C
and said "you couldn't conquer sin"
[Chorus]
            G      D
That lie is empty, empty,

C            G
Empty as the grave

            G     D                C                G
You claimed every victory when the stone was rolled away,

     G              D
Even death has lost its sting,

         C        G
Lost its power over me

            G      D      C
That lie is empty, empty, empty

                 G
Empty as the grave
[Bridge]
       D                    C
No the nails weren't strong enough

                 G
to keep You there

         D                 C
when You gave Your life for us,

                     G
even death ran scared

          D            C
When they sealed the tomb

                     G
that they laid You in

     D     C
Hosanna was the end
[Chorus] N.C. But that lie is empty, empty N.C. Empty as the grave
             G     D                C              G
Oh You claim every victory when the stone was rolled away,

     G             D
Even death has lost its sting,

         C        G
Lost its power over me

            G      D      C
That lie is empty, empty, empty

               G      D      C
Oh that lie is empty, empty, empty

                  G    D    C    G
Empty as the grave
[Outro]
                  G   D   C   G
Empty as the grave
N.C. Empty as the grave
