Caiaphas:   We have the papers, we need to arrest him 
------      Bb           C          D7          Gm

---------      Gm           D              D7           Gm 
            We just need to know where the soldiers can find him 
                 Bb       C           
Annas:      With no crowd around him 
------      D7            Gm

Caiaphas:   But you might as well take it - we think that you should 
--------- 
Annas:      Think of the things you can do with that money  

------      Chose any charity give to the poor 
 
Caiaphas:   We've noted your motives - we've noted your feelings 
---------                                   C7 
Annas:      This isn't blood money - it's a fee nothing, 
------      C7           C7          Gm
