Verse 1:
       Em 
I am a robin 
      C         G 
Robin redbreast 
        Am         D7             Em 
Day and night I do fly over David City 
         Em 
I saw my savior 
      C               G 
Oh, I heard when he said 
    Am           D         Em 
'My God, why has Thou forsaken Me?' 


    Em          C 
On Calvary, on Calvary 
          G                             D11 
I sang a mournful song tenderly and sweet 
    Em7         C 
On Calvary, on Calvary 
            G               D11             Em7 
My Savior's words no little bird could ever sing 

 
Verse 2:
         Em7 
I am the first blush 
    C        G 
Of a red rose 
      C               D         Em 
And I bloom along the walls of David City 
            Em 
They cut my thorns down 
      C         G 
For to fashion a crown 
      C                 D7                 Em 
Wind around, pierce his brow, and make him bleed 



    Em          C 
On Calvary, on Calvary 
            G                           D11 
This little rose was made to do a wicked deed 
    Em7         C 
On Calvary, on Calvary 
            G                D11         Em7 
More cruel a crown was never worn by any king

Verse 3:
       Em7 
I bear red apples 
      C            G 
I am an apple tree 
      C              D7         Em 
And I grow above the hills of David City 
            Em 
They cut my branches off 
        C         G 
For to fashion a cross 
     C                D7                   Em 
And upon my arms they nailed his hands and feet 

 

    Em7         C 
On Calvary, on Calvary 
         G                     D11 
Fruit of all our sin hangin' in the breeze 
    Em7         C 
On Calvary, on Calvary 
          G                D11         Em7 
He bore a burden more than that of any tree 
    Em7         C 
On Calvary, on Calvary 
         G                           D11 
All of creation groaned in begging for release 
    Em7         C 
On Calvary, on Calvary 
            G              D11            Em C D7 
The son of God was hung to set the sinner free
