Porter Wagoner – He Took Your Place (Guitar)

C                      F
Upon the cruel tree of Calvary

C                            G7
Was there my precious Savior cried

C                              F
Forgive them for they know not what they do

   C      G7                C
Oh sinner friend for you He died

    F                         C
His hands are gently knocking on your door

                              G7
Outside He's pleading to come in

    C                       F
His heart is breaking as He waits for you

   C        G7              C
To wash you free from every sin

                                  F
Those cold thorns they pierced my Savior's head

    C                          G7
The blood was flowing down His face

   C                       F
In shame forsaken there He hung and died

   C      G7                  C
Oh sinner friend He took your place

    F                         C
His hands are gently knocking on your door

                              G7
Outside He's pleading to come in

    C                       F
His heart is breaking as He waits for you

   C        G7              C
To wash you free from every sin

                            F
Someday He's coming back to claim His own

      C                    G7
We'll fly to Heaven's open door

    C                         F
The crown of life He gives on that great day

     C         G7           C
With Him we'll live forever more
