    	    	Вступление

[Chorus]
G                                               D
No Contracts, no lawyers or no courts in those days
Em                                              C
Just your word, and covenant with its blessing and curse
G                                    C            Em
A gift  sandal, maybe bull split in two, all you needed
Em                              C    G 
3000 years ago that was the Hebrew way


[Verse 1]
G                               D
Two men met made an agreement
Em                              C
Took a animal butterflied it in two
G                                       D
Both walked the blood trail between the half’s
Em                                C
Then a feast of the animal sealed the deal 


[Verse 2]
G                                       D
A blessing if keep it a curse if you breached
Em                                      C
That was good enough, God was the witness
G                               D
It was simple but powerful not taken lightly
Em                                C
3000 years ago that’s just the way it was


[Chorus]
G                                               D
No Contracts, no lawyers or no courts in those days
Em                                              C
Just your word, and covenant with its blessing and curse
G                                     C           Em
A gift  sandal, maybe bull split in two, all you needed
Em                              C    G 
3000 years ago that was the Hebrew way


[Verse 3]
G                     D
God made a promise to Abram
Em                     C 
I am the LORD will give you this land 8 
G                                       D
But how am I to know that I shall possess it?”
Em                                             C
Bring me a heifer, a female goat t, a ram all three years old, 


[Verse 4]
G                                               D
Cut them in half, and laid each half side by side 
Em                                              C 
Abram asleep a smoking fire pot a flaming torch passed through 
G                                D 
I make a covenant with you Abram, “To your offspring I
 Em                                   C           G
give[ this land, from the rivers Euphrates to the Nile


[Chorus]
G                                               D
No Contracts, no lawyers or no courts in those days
Em                                              C
Just your word, and covenant with its blessing and curse
G                                     C           Em
A gift  sandal, maybe bull split in two, all you needed
Em                              C    G 
3000 years ago that was the Hebrew way


[Verse 5]
G                                               D
For Abram a one sided covenant, unconditional
Em                            C
Only God would be cursed if broken
G                               D
He gave them the land, the often forgot their blessings
Em                               C
Went their own way for most of 2000 years


[Verse 6]
G                                                    D
By 30 AD Enough He replaced the Jewish nation with the church 
Em                                              C 
Jesus the Sacrifice, God Cursed and on the Cross
G                               D
Now a new better convent with us all
Em                                C
Forgiveness and salvation for all, just believe


[Outro]
G                                        C              D
No Contracts, No physical Temple, no animal sacrifices these days
Em                                              C 
Just Gods word, our faith and Jesus on the cross 
G                                             Am
That New Covent remembered with every Holy Communion
Em                                  C            G
 His sacrificed body giving eternal life available for all
