# From: Marek Vit <5vit@pol.upce.cz> To: guitar@olga.net Subject: c/Card_Michael/why.crd 'Why' Michael Card ------------ chords: Marek Vit (marek@geocities.com) (from the 'Brother to Brother' CD that Michael did w/ J.M.Talbot - it may differ slightly from the original M. Card's version)

^DmWhy did it h^Cave to ^Dmbe a friend Who ch^Gmose to bet^Cray the L^Dmord ^DmWhy did he ^Cuse a k^Dmiss to show That's n^Gmot what a k^Ciss is f^Dmor O^Fnly a friend can betr^Cay a friend A st^Dmranger has nothing to ga^Ain And ^Dmonly a f^Criend comes ^Dmclose enough To ^Gmever cause ^Cso much p^Dmain

And ^Gmwhy did there h^Fave to ^Gmbe thorny ^CmCrown pressed up^Fon His h^Gmead It ^Gmshould have b^Feen the r^Gmoyal one Made of j^Cmewels and g^Fold ins^Gmtead ^FIt had to be a c^Crown of thorns Bec^Dmause in this life that we l^Aive ^DmAll who would s^Ceek to l^Dmove A thorn is a^Gmll that this w^Corld can g^Dmive

(use the same chords as in the first verse) And why did it have to be A heavy cross He was made to bare And why did they nail His feet and hands His love would have held Him there It was a cross for upon a cross A thief was supposed to pay And Jesus had come into the world To steal every heart away Yes, Jesus had come into the world To steal every heart away ------------------------------------------ This is how I play it.
