Biography:
Hailing from Cedarville, OH, Wolves At The Gate has given a small, quiet town, big, loud rock.

Dead Man acoustic
Capo 4
Standard
note: When I put Gsus it's pretty much like a G except the 5th string is also 3rd fret
relative to capo, I don't know what the chord is actually called. This was tabbed from
the youtube video of Steve playing this song acoustically.
Intro
C2 D/F# G x2
C2 D/F# G
I was once a dead man
C2 D/F# G
A stranger with no home
C2 D/F# G
I stood opposed to God himself
C2 D/F# G
And yet He pardoned me
Intro x4
D/F# G D/F#
With all my heart and the fiercest will
G C2 D/F#
Desired not but to thieve and kill
G D/F#
I hadn't a thought of peace, but war
G C2 D/F#
Surrender was not what I'd endure
G C2 G D/F#
Deliver me! Wake me up from this damning sleep
G C2 G D/F#
I'm surrendering! Pull me out from this wickedness
G C2 G C2
In this thieving heart of stone
G C2 G D/F#
I realized all these sins I could not atone
G Gsus D/F#
I was a murderer
G Gsus D/F#
Faced with my list of crimes
C2 D/F# G
I was once a dead man
C2 D/F# G
A stranger with no home
C2 D/F# G
I stood opposed to God himself
C2 D/F# G
And yet He pardoned me
G D/F# Gsus D/F#
So just at the right time when we were dead in our sins
G D/F# Gsus D/F# G
C2 G
You took this heart of mine and gave me life again
D/F# G D/F# G
You gave me life again
D/F# G D/F#
So far apart and a debt to fulfill
G C2 D/F#
This purchase bought on redemption's hill
G D/F#
An ailing disease I couldn't cure
G C2 D/F#
Oh this grace! How rich and pure!
G D/F# C D/F#
G D/F#
The mob they yelled and screamed for justice
C2 D/F#
That wrath was ours we are to blame
G
You made a spectacle of rulers
D/F#
Denying You of a king's fame
C2 D/F# G
Having crushed the written canon
D/F# G D/F#
That wrote of all our guilt and shame
C2 D/F# G
Displayed upon the tree it was nailed
C2 G D/F#
The saving power of Your name
C2 D/F# G
For I was once a dead man
C2 D/F# G
A stranger with no home
C2 D/F#
You saw this wretch
G
And You gave him life
C2 D/F# G
Forever I'll praise You!
C2
I will praise You!
