Jelly Roll (US, Nashville, TN) - Nail Me

[Intro]
C Gm7
 
 
[Verse]
CNever been a stranger to nights in the county jail
Gm7Been there a time or two, ain't proud of it myself
CMight smoke a little weed, I've heard the grass is green
Gm7There on the other side, ain't always what it seems
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
CBut I won't hide behind a thousand lies
Gm7At least I know who I am
 
 
[Chorus]
CNail me to the cross outside
Gm7Of your ivory tower where you sit so high
GOn that horse you roam
C C'Cause I stand here alone
 
CSo heave me with the stones you cast
Gm7Your shadow looks back while you stare through glass
GYou don't think I know
C C CI'm a jester beforе your throne
 
 
[Verse]
CHow's it feel up there? Holy of and thou
Gm7To livе without a care, perfect in and out
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
CI won't hide behind a thousand lies
Gm7At least I know who I am
 
 
[Chorus]
CNail me to the cross outside
Gm7Of your ivory tower where you sit so high
GOn that horse you roam
C C'Cause I stand here alone
 
CSo heave me with the stones you cast
Gm7Your shadow looks back while you stare through glass
GYou don't think I know
C C CI'm a jester beforе your throne
 
 
[Outro]
C Gm7Hmmmm, hmm hmm hmm
Gm7 G C CHmmm mm mmmmmm mm
 
 
...Through faith
 
Through faith it is your faith that has saved you
 
There's nothing that you have done yourselves
 
But is a beautiful gift of God
 
Not because of you so that no man can boast of his goodness
 
It is because of the death of Christ ....
