[Verse]
A                 D         A      D A
Jesus, he died on calvary's tree
A            Gdim      B7            E7
Nails in his hands and nails in his feet.
E7        A           D                  A     D A
Mary, she rocked him, her little baby to sleep.
A                    Gdim       D            A       D A
But they left him to die like a tramp on the street.
 
[Verse]
A                    D          A
Only a poor man was laz'rus that day
A           Gdim        B7         E7
When he lay down at the rich man's gate.
E7                A         D               A     D A
He begged for the crumbs of the rich man to eat;
A             Gdim  D                 A      D A
He was only a tramp found dead on the street.
 
[Verse]
A                             D                    A
He was some mother's darlin', he was some mother's son;
A           Gdim      B7         E7
Once he was fair, and once he was young.
E7           A            D                  A     D A
Some mother rocked him, her little baby, to sleep;
A                    Gdim  D                   A
But they left him to die   like a tramp on the street.
 
[Verse]
A                 D         A
Jesus who died on calvary's tree.
A               Gdim      B7         E7
Shed his life's blood for you and for me.
E7               A     D                  A     D A
They pierced his side, his hands and his feet.
A                    Gdim  D                   A
But they left him to die   like a tramp on the street.
 
[Reprise]
A                 D         A
Jesus, he died on calvary's tree
A            Gdim      B7            E7
Nails in his hands and nails in his feet.
E7        A           D                  A     D A
Mary, she rocked him, her little baby to sleep.
A                    Gdim  D                    A
But they left him to die   like a tramp n the street.
