Card's version)
Am          G      Am
Why did it have to be a friend

      Dm        G        Am
Who chose to betray the Lord

Am         G      Am
Why did he use a kiss to show

        Dm         G       Am
That's not what a kiss is for

 C                    G
Only a friend can betray a friend

    Am                      E
A stranger has nothing to gain

    Am      G           Am
And only a friend comes close enough

   Dm         G        Am
To ever cause so much pain

    Dm             C      Dm
And why did there have to be thorny

Gm              C       Dm
Crown pressed upon His head

   Dm           C        Dm
It should have been the royal one

         Gm         C      Dm
Made of jewels and gold instead

C               G
It had to be a crown of thorns

   Am                         E
Because in this life that we live

Am             G       Am
All who would seek to love

            Dm            G         Am
A thorn is all that this world can give
(use the same chords as in the first verse) And why did it have to be A heavy cross He was made to bare And why did they nail His feet and hands His love would have held Him there It was a cross for upon a cross A thief was supposed to pay And Jesus had come into the world To steal every heart away Yes, Jesus had come into the world To steal every heart away ------------------------------------------ This is how I play it.
