A most amazing man

He had that look you very rarely find -

The haunting, hunted kind
I ask him to say what had happened
How it all began
I asked again - he never said a word
As if he hadn't heard.

And next the room was full of wild and angry men
Ab Ab7
[bass- Ab Gb F Eb Ab]
They seemed to hate this man - (they...)

Crying for this man .
And then I heard them mentioning my name
And leaving me the blame

Judas: Now if I help you it matters that you see
------ These sordid kind of things are coming hard to me
It's taken me some time to work out what you do
I weighed the whole thing up before I came to you
I have no thought at all about my own reward
Eb F
I really didn't come here of my own accord
[bass: D E F# G C D E F ]
[chords: D7 G7 C7 F7 ]
Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time
I came because I had to I'm the one who saw
Jesus can't control it like he did before.
And further more I know that Jesus thinks so too
Jesus wouldn't mind that I was here with you
I have no thought at all about my own reward
I really didn't come here of my own accord
Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time
Annas, you're a friend, a worldly man and wise,
Caiaphas, my friend I know your sympathize
Why are we the prophets? Why are we the ones?
Who see the sad solution - know what must be done
I have no thought at all about my own reward
I really didn't come here of my own accord
Just don't say I'm
Damned for all time
