Carry My Cross: Third Day
Capo: 2nd fret
       EmEm/CDAm
Intro:    
    Em            Em/C                D                Am
As long as I remember I’ve been walking through the wilderness
 Em              Em/C          D           Am
Praying to the Father and waiting for my time
 C                        G           D                Am           Em Em/C   D    Am
I’ve come here with a mission and soon I’ll give my life for this world
   Em               Em/C               D        Am
I’m praying in the garden and I’m looking for a miracle
  Em              Em/C                 D       Am
I find the journey hard but it’s the reason I was born
C                 G                  D                  Am         Em  Em/C    D   Am
Can this cup be passed on Lord, I pray your will be done in this world
                    C                      G
So I’ll carry my cross and I carry the shame
                     D                                Am
To the end of the road through the struggle and pain
         Am/B     C                       Em
And I’ll do it for love no it wont be in vain
                    D  Am                        Em
Yes, I carry my cross and I carry the shame
  Em         EC                D               Am
             /                                 
I feel like I’m alone here and I’m treated like a criminal
     Em                  Em/C          D                 Am
The time has come for me now even though I’ve done no wrong
 C                   G              D                       Am          Em Em/C  D Am
Father please forgive them they know not what they’ve done in this world
