BECF/ABb
It happened so long ago
Ebmaj7
I cried out for mercy back then
Gm
I plead the blood of Jesus
EbFGmF/A
Begged Him to forgive my sins
Bb
But I still can't forget it
Eb
It just won't go away
Gm
So I wept again
Bb
"Lord, wash my sin"
EbF
But this is all He'd say
CHORUS:
BbF/A
What sin, what sin
GmBb/FEbF
That's as far away as the east is from the west
BbF/A
What sin, what sin
GmBb/FEb
It was gone the very minute you confessed
FsusBbCm7/F
Buried in the sea of forgetfulness
Bb
The heaviest thing you'll carry
Eb
Is a load of guilt and shame
Gm
You were never bear it
EbFGmF/A
So let them go in Jesus' name
Bb
Our God is slow to anger
Eb
And quick to forgive our sin
GmBb
So let Him put them under the blood
EbFsusF
Don't bring them up again
'Cause He'll just say
Repeat Chorus
Bridge: (much louder)
BFGBEEb/DCmBb/DEb
Oh, Lord please deliver me
Bb/DCm
From my accusing memory
Bb/DEb
Nothing makes me weep this way
FsusF
Than when I hear You say
Repeat Chorus (softer, as before)
(Ending chords)
