Good Friday: by Josh Garrels
Capo 2
Intro: A, G, E, (2x)
ABroken wiGng, forgotten Edream, shattered thing 
That a Amans hands Gcan’t ever meEnd 
AShadow lanGd, desert sEand, a man searcAhes 
For a lGove that’ll never dEie 
ATruth be kGnown, you’re not aElone 
Your aching bones will find a Ahome 
In place where GGod he sets us Efree 
WaAke mGe up before you Ego 
I will listen for the AsounGd of your Evoice 
AHear the Gwind in the Etrees 
It goes where it Aplease 
Like the Gbreath in Eme 
AAnd all who have Gbreath can Esing 
A, G, E
When we Alayed your body down 
In the Cearth and in the ground 
Oh Gchild, rest your Asoul. 
EWill a Ahope be made good 
When a wCord is understood 
IAn the dayG, will we Asee you again? 
E, A, G, A (2x)
AGather round, Ghear the Esound 
Of a story that’s so Aold that it’s been Gtold 
Before Etime 
AHe was Gborn in the Eflesh and the blood 
In a Aworld that was dark as Ghell, and dead in Esin 
ABorn of the Gspirit, and the Evirgin child 
He’s the son of AGod, son of Eman 
AI didn’t Grecognize that look in his Eeyes 
When they cried 
With a Asorrow that no Gman has ever Eknown 
AHang him high, Gwatch him Edie, hear the cry 
CrucifAied up on that GGod forsaken Etree 
AAnd all who Ghave breath can Esing 
A, G, E
When we Alayed your body down 
In the Cearth and in the ground 
Oh Gchild, rest your Asoul. 
EWill a Ahope be made good 
When a wCord is understood 
IAn the dayG, will we Asee you again?
E (4 bars)
Oh AEloi, GEloCi, AlamGa sabacthaAni? E  
Oh my AGod, my GGodC, wAhy have you forsaken me? 
Oh AEloi, GElCoi, AlaGma sabacthAani? E  
Oh my AGod, my GGodC, wAhy have you forsaken me?

Good Friday: by Josh Garrels

Capo 2

Intro: A, G, E, (2x)

A G E

Broken wing, forgotten dream, shattered thing

A G E

That a mans hands can’t ever mend

A G E A

Shadow land, desert sand, a man searches

G E

For a love that’ll never die

A G E

Truth be known, you’re not alone

Your aching bones will find a home

G E

In place where God he sets us free

A G E

Wake me up before you go

A G E

I will listen for the sound of your voice

A G E

Hear the wind in the trees

It goes where it please

G E

Like the breath in me

A G E

And all who have breath can sing

A, G, E

When we layed your body down

In the earth and in the ground

G A

Oh child, rest your soul.

E A

Will a hope be made good

When a word is understood

A G A

In the day, will we see you again?

E, A, G, A (2x)

A G E

Gather round, hear the sound

A G

Of a story that’s so old that it’s been told

Before time

A G E

He was born in the flesh and the blood

A G E

In a world that was dark as hell, and dead in sin

A G E

Born of the spirit, and the virgin child

A E

He’s the son of God, son of man

A G E

I didn’t recognize that look in his eyes

When they cried

A G E

With a sorrow that no man has ever known

A G E

Hang him high, watch him die, hear the cry

A G E

Crucified up on that God forsaken tree

A G E

And all who have breath can sing

A, G, E

When we layed your body down

In the earth and in the ground

G A

Oh child, rest your soul.

E A

Will a hope be made good

When a word is understood

A G A

In the day, will we see you again?

E (4 bars)

A G C A G A E

Oh Eloi, Eloi, lama sabacthani?

A G C A

Oh my God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

A G C A G A E

Oh Eloi, Eloi, lama sabacthani?

A G C A

Oh my God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
