Judas
View chords used in this chart
G C G
I've been a figurine in a demon's evil plan
G C G
I've looked in the mirror for as long as I can
G C G
But I made a deal and I'll follow it down
Em D C G
And I'll swallow regret when I'm under the ground
G C G
And I've gotta have soul 'cause I've seen what it can do
G C G
And it's made complete when it's torn in two
G C G
Do you think I could manage if they put me to the test'
G C G
The truth is inside me, but I've lived the rest
Em D C G
I deserve what is coming if the truth be told
Em D C G
The Savior's for sale and I've rendered Him sold
Interlude
G C G
I was one of the twelve; I was part of the gang
G C G
Now, I see it so clearly from the place that I hang
G C G
And my body was spilled like tears in the flood
Em D C G
The sower reaps nothing from a field full of blood
G C G
In the game of the Maker I've been a pawn
G C G
The match has been checked and His hand is gone
Em D C G
Without my betrayal the prophecy fails
G C G
No crown of thorns, no cross and no nails
Em D C G
So, I ask for deliverance, from my destiny
Em D C G
My name is Judas; someone had to be me
