Sojourn
Only Your Blood
From "Over the Grave"
Tabbed by thatchadmiller (Twitter)
Intro and verse
G - Gsus
Verse 1
I am ashamed conceived in sin I've always been.
Born in a world where Adam's fall corrupts us
Rooted is the seed of death in life's first breath
The law demands a perfect heart but I'm defiled in every part
Chorus
For Emonly Your blood is D/F#enough to cover my Csin
For oDnly Your blood is enough to cover Gme.
Verse 2
All this guilt disturbs my peace I find no release.
Who will save me from my crime I'm helpless
Behold I fall before Your face in need of grace
So speak to me in a gentle voice for in Your mercies I rejoice
Chorus
Bridge:
CLord creaDte my heart Bmanew ( Father Emcome and Dmake us Cwise )
COnly YDou are pure andBm true ( Lead us aEmway from Dour demCise )
CLord You Dare the remeBmdy ( For only your Emblood canD set us Amfree )
For only Your blood can set us Cfree. For only Your Dblood can set us Gfree
Musical interlude:
Am Em D x2
Am G/B C D - G
Verse 3 x2
No bleeding bird, no bleeding beast, no hyssop branch, no priest
No running brook, no flood, no sea, can wash away this stain from me.
Outro Chorus
For Emonly your blood is D/F#enough to cover my Csin
For Donly your blood is enough to coverAm7 me.
I play the main riff with some chorus, delay, and just play it with
standard open G chord, hammering on the sus4 on the B string 1st fret. You
can play it in bar chord formation hammering the sus4 on the G string 5th
fret too. Whatever works best for you...
Since gtr 2 in the verse is a little more subtle and harder to pick out,
here's the tab (play this under the G - Gsus4 starting on verse 2)
