He Took My Place Chords by Charley Pride

_ _ [D#m] _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ [G#] _ There [C#] was a man, more than a man, called Jesus Christ of [G#] Galilee.
There was a place where Jesus prayed, a place that's called _ [C#] Gethsemane.
There on a hill called Calvary, there stood a cross of [F#] agony.
Hail to [C#] that cross where [D#m] I should be, he took [G#] my place at [C#] Calvary.
Now [F#] I'm a child of [C#] royalty, and [G#] he my name.
Oh, [C#] _ [D#] he's [F#] done so _ [C#] much for me, he [D#m] took my place at [C#] Calvary.
_ [G#] _
_ [C#] Christ Jesus lives, he lives today, from sin and death he [G#] set me free.
How hand in hand, each place I go, my Jesus Christ he [C#] walks with me.
And when I ask, how could it be, that Jesus cared so [F#] much for me?
The [C#] answer comes so [D#m]
tenderly, he took [G#] my place at [C#] Calvary.
Now [F#] I'm a child of [G#]
royalty, and he my name.
Oh, he's done [F#] _ so [C#] much for me, he [D#m] took my place at [C#]
Calvary.
_ [D#m] _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ [G#] _ And [C#] now my Lord, the Son of God, I share with everyone [G#] I see.
I give my best, my all to him, because he gives so [C#] much to me.
Now if his home you want to be, come join his royal [F#] family.
And [C#] let your heart sing [D#m] joyfully, he took [G#] my place at [C#] Calvary.
[D#] Now [F#] I'm a child of [C#] royalty, and [G#] he my name.
Oh, [F#] he's done so [C#] much for me, he [D#m] took my place [G#] at _ _ [C#]
Calvary.
_ Amen. _ _
