CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: C Am G F (2x) C
Am F
My name is Mary Magdalen
G C F G C
I come from Palestine
Am F
Please excuse these rags I'm in
G C F
But I've fallen on hard times
G F C F
Long ago I had my work
Am G F G C
When I was in my prime
Am F
But I gave it up, and all for love
G C
It was his career or mine
CHORUS:
Am G F C F
Jesus loved me, this I know
G
Why on earth did I ever let him go
Am G F C
He was always faithful, he was always kind
F Am G C
But he walked off with this heart of mine
INTERLUDE: C Am G F (2x) C
Am F
I remember nights we spent
G C F G C
Whispering our creed
Am F
Our rituals, our sacraments
G C F
The stars our canopy
G F C F
There beneath an olive tree
Am G F G C
We'd offer up our plea
Am F
God's creation, innocent
G C
His arms surrounding me
CHORUS:
