My Before And After Chords

   
Intro – Ebm  *  Bsus  *  F#  *  C#sus  (x2)

Verse1

    Bsus                           F#
  I said you gotta leave, you gotta promise me,
             Ebm                          C#sus      
  It's the beginning of my end, you gotta promise me,
            Bsus              F#
  How can a holy God renew a wicked Pharisee,
                      Ebm                      C#sus  (let ring)
  I'm sayin' I'm like Peter in the boat so just depart from me.
               Bsus                   F#
  It seems I'm destined for doom like ancient prophecy,
             Ebm                         C#sus
  And in the dark I'm consumed, it's just too much for me,
              Bsus               F#                    
  With sin in full bloom my gloom booms by the full moon,
          Ebm                         C#sus  (let ring)
  And I'm thinkin' to myself, “How can You rescue me?”

CHORUS
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jimmy_needham/my_before_and_after_crd.html ]
Ebm       Bsus                F#    C#sus
       My before and after,       I can't but sing.
Ebm       Bsus                F#      C#sus
       My before and after,       I'll sing praises to my King.
Ebm       Bsus                F#             C#sus
       My before and after,       Here's the anthem, let it ring,
      Ebm       Bsus       F#           C#sus
       One love, two arms, three scars,  Draw us to where You are,
      Ebm        Bsus         F#          C#sus  (let ring)
       No one is, too far,      for You to save a heart.


C#sus  interlude (one bar)

Verse 2

              Bsus                      F#
  Then in the darkness of this room You snuck up next to me,
               Ebm                     C#sus
  You put Your hand upon my wound and whispered, “Rest in Me.”
                    
              Bsus                          F#                           
  And there I stepped out of the tomb and into destiny,
                       Ebm
  the rest they say is history,
 C#sus  (let ring)
  Your grace is such a mystery.

TO CHORUS

Ebm * Bsus * F# * C#m  (x1)

BRIDGE

          Ebm                            Bsus     
  I got a name change,    and that's the strange thing,
               Ebm                     Bsus
  'Cause I was once stained,   now I'm called saint.        (x2)

TO CHORUS

Ebm * Bsus * F# * C#sus  (x4)  (end on C#)


~~~~~

This is easiest to play with a Capo on 2.  (Chords are not relative to that, these 
are the true chords.)
