God Rested Chords

(ver. 1)
Andrew Peterson
[Intro]
E A  F#m E
 
 
[Verse 1]
E                         A/E
So they took His body down
F#m                 E                      B/E
The man who said He was the resurrection and the life
E                        A/E
Was lifeless on the ground now
F#m                      E                   B/E
The sky was red His blood along the blade of night
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C#m                           G#m
And as the Sabbath fell they shrouded Him in linen
G#m                         A
They dressed Him like a wound
C#m                    G#m
The rich man and the women
                      A
They laid Him in the tomb
 
 
[Chorus 1]
E                             F#m
Six days shall You labor, the seventh is the Lord's
   E                                  A/E
In six, He made the earth and all the heavens
                         E
But He rested on the seventh
    C#m
God rested
   E
He said that it was finished
        A/E               B
And the seventh day, He blessed it
    E      A/E  F#m E B/E
God rested
 
 
[Verse 2]
E                             A/E
So they laid their hopes away
F#m                     E
They buried all their dreams
          B/E
About the Kingdom He proclaimed
E                                 A
And they sealed them in the grave
F#m                E             B/E
As a holy silence fell on all Jerusalem
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C#m                    B
Butd the Pharisees were restless
G#m             A
Pilate had no peace
C#m               B
Peter's heart was reckless
G#m             A
Mary couldn't sleep
        E      C#m E A  B
But God rested
 
 
[Chorus 2]
E                             F#m
Six days shall You labor, the seventh is the Lord's
   E                                  A
In six, He made the earth and all the heavens
                         E
But He rested on the seventh
    C#m
God rested
   E                                   A              B
He worked till it was finished and the seventh day He blessed it
   E
He said that it was good
        A               B
And the seventh day, He blessed it
    E      A
God rested
 
 
[Outro]
E                A
The sun went down, the Sabbath faded
F#m                  E          B/E
The holy day was done and all Creation waited
