WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Brad Paisley - The Old Rugged Cross Chords | Ver. 1
[Verse]
G C C
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
D D G G
The emblem of suffering and shame,
G G C C
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
D D G G
For a world of lost sinners was slain.
[Chorus]
D D G G
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
C C G G
Till my trophies at last I lay down,
G G C C
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
D D G G
And exchange it some day for a crown.
[Verse]
G G C C
Oh, that old rugged Cross so despised by the world
D D G G
Has a wondrous attraction for me
G G C C
For the dear Lamb of God, left his Glory above
D D G G
To bear it to dark Calvary
[Chorus]
D D G G
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
C C G G
Till my trophies at last I lay down,
G G C C
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
D D G G
And exchange it some day for a crown.
[Verse]
G G C C
In the old rugged Cross, stain'd with blood so divine
D D G G
A wondrous beauty I see
G G C C
For 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died
D D G G
To pardon and sanctify me
[Chorus]
D D G G
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
C C G G
Till my trophies at last I lay down,
G G C C
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
D D G G
And exchange it some day for a crown.
[Verse]
G G C C
To the old rugged cross I will ever be true,
D D G G
It's shame and reproach gladly bear,
G G C C
Then he'll call me some day to my home far away,
D G G G
Where his glory forever I'll share.
[Chorus]
D D G G
And I'll cherish the old rugged cross
C C G G
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
G G C C
I will cling to the old rugged cross
G D G G
And exchange it some day for a crown
