30 Pieces Of Silver

        Tom: G

        G 
Tis a sad but true story 
		          D 
From the bible it came 
                            A             
And it tells us how Judas 
		           D 
Sold the Savior in shame 
                            G       
He planned with the council 
		            D 
Of high priest that day 
                         A         
Thirty pieces of silver 
			         D 
Was the price they would pay 
 
             G 
Thirty pieces of silver 
		           D 
Thirty shackles of shame 
                               A           
Was the price paid for Jesus 
			    D 
On the cross he was slain 
                        G 
Betrayed and forsaken 
                      D 
Unloved and unclaimed 
                      A          
In anger they pierced him 
		           D 
But he died not in vein 
 
            G 
Twas there on the hillside 
		      D 
The multitude came 
                           A 
And found our dear savior 
		      D 
Then took him away 
                              G                           
They bruised and they mocked him 
                                      D 
Thorns was crowned around his head 
                           A                         
And his garment of purple 
			           D 
Showed the blood stains of red 
 
                       G                      
Far off in the mountains 
			          D 
With his face towards the sun 
                     A                           	
        Judas begged mercy 
		        D 
For what he had done 
		         G			          
He gave back the silver 
			          D 
For his heart filled with strife 
		          A			      
Then there in the mountain 
		        D 
He took his own life 
 
		     G		       
30 pieces of silver 
		       D 
30 shackles of shame 
			       A	              
        Was the price paid for Jesus 
			    D 
On the cross he was slain
