And I know those last two are the other way around

'Cause I'm no longer lost but I forget that I'm found
F G Am C/E
And You paid all my debt but I still live like the rent is due
[Chorus]

But You hung on that tree to keep me from the gallows

Yeah, You hung on that tree to keep me from the gallows
F G Am C/E

And I keep finding myself in the wrong part of this tale
Am C/E
But I'm not the point, 'cause You succeed where I've failed
F G Am C/E
All the cracks that I created are forever closed by Your blood
[Chorus]

And You hung on that tree to keep me from the gallows
