30 Pieces of Silver
by Hank Williams [3/4 time]
written by Odell McLeod
G C G
Tis a sad but true story from the bible it came
D7 G
And it tells us how Judas sold the Savior in shame
G7 C G
He planned with the council of high priest that day
D7 G
30 pieces of silver was the price they would pay
G7 C G
30 pieces of silver 30 shackles of shame
D7 G
Was the price paid for Jesus on the cross he was slain
G7 C G
Betrayed and forsaken unloved and unclaimed
D7 G
In anger they pierced him but he died not in vain
G7 C G
T'was on there on the hillside the multitude came
D7 G
And found our dear Savior then took him away
G7 C G
They bruised and they mocked him thorns was crowned around his head
D7 G
And his garment of purple showed the blood stains of red
G7 C G
Far off in the mountains with his face towards the sun
D7 G
Judas begged mercy for what he had done
G7 C G
He gave back the silver for his heart filled with strife
D7 G
Then there in the mountain he took his own life
G7 C G
30 pieces of silver 30 shackles of shame
D7 G
Was the price paid for Jesus on the cross he was slain
