Whitewash

Drakeford


Tom: G

G
You throw out your whitewash
         C            G
and I’ll throw out my pride

let’s open and expose all
         C             G
that the devil says to hide
          Em
and let’s shave off these callouses
         C            D
from the things we’ve tried
    Em
and release all the secrets
      C              G
we’re taught to keep inside

[Chorus]
            Em          C        G
Cause He is worthy of a flawless bride
       Am          C   G
but He says we are His delight
      Em                   D
He is worthy of a flawless bride
             C        G
so we should probably try

[Verse 2]
G
You throw out your whitewash
         C               G
and I’ll shut my judging eyes

let our thanks and our praises
    C                  G
now replace our battle cries
          Em
and let’s stop this unrighteous hatred
     C         D
that fueled by lies
          Em
and let’s love all the people
         C     G
religion has despised

[Chorus]

            Em          C        G
Cause He is worthy of a flawless bride
       Am          C   G
but He says we are His delight
      Em                   D
He is worthy of a flawless bride
             C        Am
so we should probably try...

[Bridge]
                     Em
a little harder than attending Sunday service
         G
take the gospel to the streets
            D
and let our living be our worship

Am
and instead of pointing fingers
          Em
we should find the faults within us
      G                               D
cause we’ve all got this blood on our hands

Am
and I’m not singing to the world
           Em
I’d rather preach it too the choir
            G
cause we’re executing murderers
    D
and exalting lots of liars

Am                          Em
when in actuality we’re all deserving of hell-fire
    G                          D
but saved by this blood on our hands

[Outro]
G                                C            G
I’m urging you to hold on to the hope that we profess
                                      C         G
cause the promiser is faithful and he keeps his promises
Em                               C                     D
So I promise you, oh, my friends there’ll be more than this
Em                           C                   G
but not because of our works but by His righteousness
