E5            E5
Young man, up on the hillside
E5            E5
Teaching new ways
F#5
Each word, winning them over
A5          B5         C#5
Each heart a kindled flame


E5          E5
Old men, watch from the outside
E5              E5
Guarding their prey
F#5
Threated by the voice of a paragon
A5            B5     C#5
Leading their lambs away
A5            B5   C#5
Leading them far away

REFRAO


C#5    A5       B5
Nobody knew his secret ambition
E5      A5        B5     F#5
Nobody knew his claim to fame
C#5           A5       B5
He broke the old rules steeped in tradition
E5    A5          B5    F#5
He tore the holy veil away
C#5           A5       B5
Questioning those in powerful positions
E5          A5          B5       F#5
Running to those who called his name
C#5         A5       B5
But nobody knew his secret ambition
E5      A5       B5   C#5    B5  E5  B5 C#5
Was to give his life away


E5          E5            
His rage, shaking the temple
E5           E5
His word to the wise
F#5
His hand, healing on the seventh day
A5        B5        C#5
His love wearing no disguise


E5                     E5
Some say, death to the radical
E5             E5
He's way out of line
F#5
Some say, praised be the miracle
A5          B5      C#5
God sends a blessed sign
A5         B5        C#5
A blessed sign for troubled times

Oooohh...

No no, no no
E5             E5
I tell you nobody knew
E5             E5
Until he gave his life away

No!
