PLAY INTRODUCTION RIFF FOR ABOUT TWICE (8 BARS) then start the song
at the 2nd bar of the third round...




Nobody stood and applauded them |>
|> Play the same as the intro
So they knew from the start |> riff for about 8 bars.
|>
This road would not lead to fame |>
Dsus C#7 F#msus
All they really knew for sure was Jesus had called to them
G#msus Asus Dsus
He said "Come follow me" and they came
F#msus A
With reckless abandon they came


Empty nets lying there at the waters edge |>
|> Play the same as the
Told a story that few could believe |> intro riff for about
|> 8 bars.
And none could explain |>
Dsus C#7 F#msus G#msus
How some crazy fishermen agreed to go where Jesus led
Asus Dsus
With no thought for what they would gain
F#msus Asus Asus Bsus
For Jesus had called them by name and they answered

No ot.....her reason at all but the sake of the call
Asus G#msus Dsus A
Wholly devoted to live and to die...


BRIDGE :

B C#m
Not for the sake of a creed or a cause
A A B
Not for a dream or a promise
B C#m
Simply because it is Jesus who calls
A Dsus
And if we believe we'll obey
A A B
And we'll answer....
