V E R S E 1
Eb                       Bbsus         Bb
  What can wash away the guilty stain
Cm      Bb                    Ab
  After all the wrong I've done
Eb                         Bbsus
  I've already tried a thousand ways
Cm          Bb             Ab
  But it's never been enough
                   Bb
What could be enough


C H O R U S 
                  Eb     Bb/D
Nothing but the blood
          Cm   
A better word was spoken
      Ab
Oh I know it was
                  Eb     Bb/D
Nothing but the blood
                 Cm
Every curse was broken 
      Ab
Oh I know it was
                 |Eb / / Bb|Ab / / /|
Nothing but the blood
                 |Eb / / Bb|Ab / / /|
Nothing but the blood


V E R S E 2
Eb                      Bbsus
  And when I’m reminded of my shame
Cm        Bb               Ab
  To the fountain I will run
Eb                       Bbsus
   Every failure covered now in grace
Cm         Bb           Ab
  For the lamb has overcome
              Bb
What can overcome


C H O R U S 
                 Eb      Bb/D
Nothing but the blood
         Cm   
A better word was spoken
      Ab
Oh I know it was
                  Eb     Bb/D
Nothing but the blood
                 Cm
Every curse was broken 
      Ab
Oh I know it was
                 |Eb / / Bb|Ab / / /|
Nothing but the blood
                 |Eb / / Bb|Ab / / /|
Nothing but the blood


B R I D G E 
Eb            Bb
On that cross
Ab
Hallelujah 
Eb                    
I left my shame 
      Bb      Ab
Where the nails were
Eb             Bb
Jesus Christ
 Ab
O Lamb of God
Eb                    
Be lifted higher
Bb   Ab
Forever


C H O R U S 
                 Eb    Bb/D
Nothing but the blood
         Cm   
A better word was spoken
      Ab
Oh I know it was
                  Eb    Bb/D
Nothing but the blood
                 Cm
Every curse was broken 
      Ab
Oh I know it was
                 |Eb / / Bb|Ab / / /|
Nothing but the blood
                 |Eb / / Bb|Ab / / /|
Nothing but the blood

Jesus Christ
 Ab
O Lamb of God
Eb                    
Be lifted higher
