Pilate’s
dream
Am Dm G7 Am - F
1. I
dreamed I met a Galilean, a most amazing man,
E7 F - Dm E7 Am
he had the face you
very rarely find, the haunting,
hunted kind.
Am Dm G7 Am
- F
2. I
asked him to say what had happened, how it all began,
E7 F - Dm
E7 Am
I asked again – he
never said a word, as if he hadn’t
heard.
A
A7 Dm
And
next the room was full of wild and angry men,
G
G7
they
seemed to hate this man –
C - E7
they
fell on him and then disappeared
again.
Am Dm G7 Am
- F
3.
Then I saw thousands of millions crying for this man,
E7 F - Dm
and
then I heard them mentioning my name,
E7 Am
and
leaving me the blame.
