Am


[Verse 1]

         Am
From the hands it came down
         Dm
From the side it came down
         E
From the feet it came down
    Am
And ran to the ground
        Am
Between heaven and hell
  Dm
A teardrop fell
       E
In the deep crimson dew
    Am
The tree of life grew


[Chorus]

        C              
And the blood gave life
       G                   
To the branches of the tree
        F                  
And the blood was the price
     G                    
That set the captives free
        C                
And the numbers that came
            G                 
Through the fire and the flood
F                
Clung to the tree
           Am                 
And were redeemed by the blood


[Verse 2]

         Am
From the tree streamed a light
     Dm
That started the fight
           E
'Round the tree grew a vine
         Am
On whose fruit I could dine
   Am
My old friend Lucifer came
          Dm
Fought to keep me in chains
      E
But I saw through the tricks
    Am
Of six-sixty-six


[Chorus]

        C              
And the blood gave life
       G                   
To the branches of the tree
        F                  
And the blood was the price
     G                    
That set the captives free
        C                
And the numbers that came
            G                 
Through the fire and the flood
F                
Clung to the tree
           Am                 
And were redeemed by the blood


[Verse 3]

         Am
From his hands it came down
         Dm
From his side it came down
         E
From his feet it came down
    Am
And ran to the ground
      Am
And a small inner voice
          Dm
Said "You do have a choice."
    E
The vine engrafted me
      Am
And I clung to the tree


[Chorus]

        C              
And the blood gave life
       G                   
To the branches of the tree
        F                  
And the blood was the price
     G                    
That set the captives free
        C                
And the numbers that came
            G                 
Through the fire and the flood
F                
Clung to the tree
           Am                 
And were redeemed by the blood


[Outro]

         Am
From his hands it came down
         Dm
From his side it came down
         E
From his feet it came down
    Am
And ran to the ground
