Petra – Skin In The Game (Guitar)

      C#            E
In the  garden of  Gethsemane

     F#               B
Where  angels weep for all his scorn

  G#
He  knelt and prayed in agony

    F#                  C#
For a  world so lost and  torn

 B                       A
The burden of a love so pure

G#                        A
  For our souls he would endure

                     C#m  B
Oh the price of love so  deep

A                    G#
 A promise he would keep

 C#
Skin in the game

C#m  E             B
      His blood was shed

F#            C#     E      B
  A crown of thorns upon his head

F#m        A
For every heart

     B
For every name

       C#m
Skin in   the game

C#m      C#
   On the  cross he breathes forgiveness

        B
With his final sacred breath

          A
Breaking chains and bracing sorrow

 F#
Conquering the sting of death

      C#m
In the   echoes of his suffering

     E               B
Lies a hope of life renewed

 A                         F#m
In his wounds we find our healing

               G#m           E   A
In his pain our   souls are soothed

                     C#m
Overplaying the love so  deep

B A                 G#
  A promise he would  keep

His blood was shed

            C#m    E      B
A crown of thorns upon his head

F#m         A
   For every heart

     B
For every name

           C#m
He bore the   weight

  A
In every step we give our all

We hear his voice and heed his call

 A
For every trial we call his name

     C#m                   A
And sacrifice skin in the game

                    C#m
Through loss through   gain

We follow him

   For every heart for every name
