Cross Before The Crown chords by Seth Carpenter

• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

Verse 1:
                 A
When I’ve set my eyes on the hills above
            E
Anchored my heart in another love
            F#m                         D
Carried the weight of its empty promises

Verse 2:
           A
I know the war of my heart was yours
                  E
But you fought to burry the life before
              F#m
And I have to lay down the fight to save it
                         D
Cause what would it mean

Pre-chorus:
                   A
If I built a throne but I had nothing to bring
                E
If I wore a crown but I was never a king
                F#m
If I couldn’t offer a heart that was pure
                   D
O what was it for

Chorus:
        A       E   F#m             D
When we finally see all we’ve been waiting
         A            E   F#m             D
We will know the worth of all that you endured
     A          E             F#m           D
Only when these eyes find the moments in between
          A        E                   F#m              D
Will this heart of mine know there’s a cross before the crown

Instr:
D

Verse 3:
               A
When there was only a ray of hope
          E
You saw a beauty we couldn’t know
             F#m
Found in the place where the father’s heart
                    D
Was all that we had

Chorus:
        A       E   F#m             D
When we finally see all we’ve been waiting
         A            E   F#m             D
We will know the worth of all that you endured
     A          E             F#m           D
Only when these eyes find the moments in between
          A        E                   F#m              D
Will this heart of mine know there’s a cross before the crown

D            A
This is Your kingdom
    F#m          E
The work of Your hands

An unfettered vessel
  F#m       E
A servant I am
    D       A
Whatever it costs me
     F#m              E
This much will I know

The cross is before me

But the crown is my home
