The Old Rugged Cross

	 
[Intro]
D7 G
[Versetto]
G                           C 
On a hill far away stood a old rugged cross 
        D7                      G 
The emblem of suffering and shame 
                                   C 
And i love that old cross where the dearest and best 
         D                       G 
For a world of lost sinners was slain
[Ritornello]
          D                      G 
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross 
           C                    G    D 
Till my trophies at last I lay down 
        G            G7         C     Am7 
I will cling to the old rugged cross 
           G          D        G      D 
And exchange it some day for a crown
[Versetto]
           G                   C 
To the old rugged cross i will ever be true 
       D                       G 
It's shame and reproach gladly bear 
                                  C 
Then he'll call me some day to my home far away 
          D                  G 
Where his glory forever I'll share
[Ritornello]
          D                      G 
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross 
           C                    G    D 
Till my trophies at last I lay down 
        G            G7         C     Am7 
I will cling to the old rugged cross 
           G          D        G      D 
And exchange it some day for a crown 
        G            G7         C     Am7 
I will cling to the old rugged cross 
           G         D            C          G 
And exchange it some day for a crown
