[VERSE 1]
It took t[E]housands of silver coins to sway D[A]elilah,
It was l[E]ust that left Samson with no [Bm]hair,
It took a m[E]ulti-colored coat to t[A]urn the sons of Jacob,
It was ga[E]zing from the roof that left King Da[Bm]vid in despair. [E]
[VERSE 2]
It took c[E]rafty words to make the fruit ap[A]pealing,
It was f[E]ear that guided Peter to u[Bm]ntruth,
It took t[E]hirty silver coins to s[A]way the heart of Judas,
Tell me, w[E]hat will it [Bm]take to sway [E]you?
[CHORUS 1]
You [A]read a verse, you sing the hymn, the [Bm]money's in the plate [E]
[A]Sundays you mark out for Him, but even [Bm]then you show up late [E]
You [A]bought the shirt, you wear the cross, but [Bm]sin throughout the week [E]
[A]For thirty shekels and a noose, you [Bm]kiss him on the cheek [E]
[VERSE 3]
Is it [E]Google that provides your great [A]temptation
Or your [E]ego that feeds you the greatest [Bm]lies?
Is it [E]submission to authority that [A]gives you great frustration
Or your [E]boastful prayers and pious words that leave you [Bm]righteous in your eyes? [E]
[VERSE 4]
Is it [E]date night watching movies in [A]seclusion,
Is it [E]sitting in the traffic wasting [Bm]time,
Is it [E]walking past the night club in a [A]pool of your confusion,
Is it [E]picking up the bottle after a [Bm]long and lonely night?[E]
[CHORUS 2]
He [A]gives you bread, He cleans your feet, He [Bm]even calls you friend; [E]
The [A]sick and naked you despise but He [Bm]loves you to the end.[E]
You [A]weep about Him on the cross but the [Bm]hammer's in your hand [E]
For [A]thirty shekels and a noose, you [Bm]betray the Son of Man [E]
[VERSE 5]
Perhaps the [E]issue doesn't lie with all we're [A]doing
Perhaps the [E]problem lies in what we fail to [Bm]do
Perhaps our [E]minds are too wrapt up in what goes [A]on with you and me
We don't [E]give Him the a[Bm]ttention that He's due[E]
[VERSE 6]
The [E]question's not the cost of your [A]betrayal
Our [E]greatest sin's not straying from the [Bm]truth
The [E]issue at the heart of the very [A]reason that we fall
Is just one [E]question: How much [Bm]is He worth to [E]you?
[CHORUS 3]
'Cause you can [A]live a holy life, call Him [Bm]Master, God, and Lord [E]
You can [A]share His name and give Him all the [Bm]time that you afford [E]
But rel[A]igiosity that's built on [Bm]you or any man,[E]
For [A]thirty shekels and a noose will [Bm]succumb to Satan's plan. [E]
[CHORUS 1]
You [A]read a verse, you sing the hymn, the [Bm]money's in the plate [E]
