THE CAUSE OF CHRIST – Kari Jobe
NOTE: Written by Kari Jobe, Benjamin Hastings, Bryan Fowler
      This song is in 3/4.
      I based this loosely on the acoustic version 
      but these chords work for the studio version too.
      The E Major chords in the CHORUS and BRIDGE 
      can be replaced with E(sus4) OR E(add11) for flavor.
      If you want to play it with G Major chord shapes 
      hit the down arrow twice on the transpose button 
      and then capo 2 to sound in A Major.
      If the chords are too dense or hard to play 
      hit the simplify button on the left.
