That’s Why Jesus Came Chords / Audio (Transposable):







Intro

G     C   G         Em   D   G  



      

Verse 

        G        C         G

In my desire for righteousness

   Em                  D   G

I turned my heart into a fortress

             G          C         G

Built higher walls with no drawbridge

     Em                  D         G

I grabbed my sword and I clenched my fists

           G        C   G

Oh fear divides and separates

        Em          D      G

And as wisdom often masquerades

    G  G         C  G

But Jesus comes and violates

      Em               D  G

Every kingdom built to isolate





Chorus

   C                Em 

I thought my whole life

                  D             G

There was just a pull from one side

   C               Em           D

A dark attempt to see me compromise

              C              Em

Then religion told me to be holy

        D             G

With a burden on my shoulders

        C                  Em

Though meaning well still gave me hell

        D

And I realized just the same

    C                 Em

The roads are wide on both sides

    D               G

But that's why Jesus came





Interlude 

G     C   G 



   

Verse 

          C         G       C             G

I'm gonna walk this line straight through time

Em              D        G

Holdin' fast to Jesus Christ

   C        G         C         G

As bombs go off on my left and right

           Em                   D        G

I'm gonna walk this line till I see the light





 Chorus 





Interlude 

G     C   G     C  





Bridge

    G                 G C 

His yoke is easy, His burden doesn't crush me

    G Em                      D

His hand is always steady and so I'll let Him lead

    G                         G C 

The blind guide blindly but I see the best when trusting

    G Em                   D                        

His hand is always steady, so I'll let Him lead





 Chorus 





 Interlude
