Nothing but the Blood Chords and Words Matt Redman

Matt Redman song Nothing by the blood lyrics and tab from the album and dvd Face Down is the 2nd song on the cd, when matt wrote this he said that he wanted to take the old hymn and bring it in a new and fresh way. Excellent song that we have done in our church. Ok now when it comes to playing this.. some will dispute this.. but hey.. ive seen the video. lol.. so I could see that he did not have a capo on his guitar. The song is in B and he plays it open but that is not to say you cant play it with a capo on.. you can always do that on songs. I personally think it sounds better with a capo and he showed that one time on worship together but here it is without like the dvd… The Electric Guitar Parts are at the end of this..for all you electrical geezers.. like myself.

B – 024400
B/G# – 404400
F# 244322
E – 022100

    hey good job.
    But in my opinion all the F# are major, there aren´t any minor chords at all.
    GOD bless you
