I have transposed this song down 3 half-steps, to make it easier to play on the guitar.
Original key starts in F.
Play this on capo 3 to play in original key :-).
Have fun!
Bm
It was a cloudy day
G
The earth stood still
A Aaug
A Man hung crying in the shadows
Em F#sus4 F#
Of a hill called Calvary
Bm G
An innocent man, belied and scorned
A
Had gladly borne the pain
Aaug Em
and suffering for a world
F# Bm
That should have died there in His place
F#sus4 F#
And as He did, He said,
B G#m
"Forgive them no matter what they've done
C#m E F#
Forgive them and tell them they are loved
B G#m
And give to them a chance to go on living
C#m E
And give to them a life that they could
F# B G#m
never have before Oh
C#m E F#
Father, forgive them"

Bm
And to pay the price
G
He became the sacrifice
A Aaug
Surely, He carried all of my sorrows
Em F#
And He bore my every grief
Bm
And did it willingly
G
He shed His blood for me
A Aaug
And through the tears, I still can see Him
Em F#sus4 F# Bm
Gaze with love upon the ones who cursed His name
F#sus4
He gave his all to say
F# B G#m
We're forgiven no matter what we've done
C#m E F#
Forgiven and sheltered by His love
B G#m
And we're given a chance to go on living
C#m E
And we're given a life that we could
F# D
never have before
Bm
No matter what we've done
Em A
Forgiven and sheltered by His love
D Bm
And we're given a chance to go on living
Em F Dm Bb C
Forgiven forgiven by his love
F Dm Bb C F
