chords: Marek Vit (marek@geocities.com)
(from the 'Brother to Brother' CD that Michael did w/ J.M.Talbot
- it may differ slightly from the original M. Card's version)
 
Am          G      Am
Why did it have to be a friend
      Dm        G        Am
Who chose to betray the Lord
Am         G      Am
Why did he use a kiss to show
        Dm         G       Am
That's not what a kiss is for
 C                    G
Only a friend can betray a friend
    Am                      E
A stranger has nothing to gain
    Am      G           Am
And only a friend comes close enough
   Dm         G        Am
To ever cause so much pain
 
    Dm             C      Dm
And why did there have to be thorny
Gm              C       Dm
Crown pressed upon His head
   Dm           C        Dm
It should have been the royal one
         Gm         C      Dm
Made of jewels and gold instead
C               G
It had to be a crown of thorns
   Am                         E
Because in this life that we live
Am             G       Am
All who would seek to love
            Dm            G         Am
A thorn is all that this world can give
 
(use the same chords as in the first verse)
And why did it have to be
A heavy cross He was made to bare
And why did they nail His feet and hands
His love would have held Him there
It was a cross for upon a cross
A thief was supposed to pay
And Jesus had come into the world
To steal every heart away
Yes, Jesus had come into the world
To steal every heart away
