[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/michael_card/why_crd.html ]
Dm          C      Dm
Why did it have to be a friend
      Gm        C        Dm
Who chose to betray the Lord
Dm         C      Dm
Why did he use a kiss to show
        Gm         C       Dm
That's not what a kiss is for
 F                    C
Only a friend can betray a friend
    Dm                      A
A stranger has nothing to gain
    Dm      C           Dm
And only a friend comes close enough
   Gm         C        Dm
To ever cause so much pain

    Gm             F      Gm
And why did there have to be thorny
Cm              F       Gm
Crown pressed upon His head
   Gm           F        Gm
It should have been the royal one
         Cm         F      Gm
Made of jewels and gold instead
F               C
It had to be a crown of thorns
   Dm                         A
Because in this life that we live
Dm             C       Dm
All who would seek to love
            Gm            C         Dm
A thorn is all that this world can give

(use the same chords as in the first verse)
And why did it have to be
A heavy cross He was made to bare
And why did they nail His feet and hands
His love would have held Him there
It was a cross for upon a cross
A thief was supposed to pay
And Jesus had come into the world
To steal every heart away
Yes, Jesus had come into the world
To steal every heart away
