	  th 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: 
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 
A love like this will come but once 
      G     C      F G C 
This I do believe 
             Am      F 
And I'll not see his like again 
    G         C       F 
As I live and breath 
          G   F        C     F 
I'm sorry if I might offend 
  Am         G    F G C 
I will never see 
              Am    F 
How the tenderness I shared with him 
      G      C     
Became a heresy 


Chorus: 
Am    G        F       C     F 
Jesus loved me, this I know 
                                 G 
Why on earth did he ever have to 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 
       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
