 Sam was a carpenter 50 years 
   B                  C#m         B   F#7 
 he pounded out blood, sweat and tears
    E                F#7      E F#7 
 one day he hung his hammer up
 B                   C#m        B   F#7 
 he wanted to do the things he loved
      F#7                             E            
 what once was Sunday fishin' now was 7 days a week
   F#7                         E                 F#      
 he told his wife "to find me, I’ll be down at the creek"
 
 E                             B   
 I don't want to drive another nail

 I’ve worked hard to do my job and I did it well
 E                                      B                      
 I’ve got the scars on these two hands to show I haven't failed

 G#m                 E                     B                    
 now she was a woman full of faith and old Sam was full of pride
         G#m         F#7             E            F#7 
 and she knew he had one more job to do before he died
 
 
 B             C#m        B F#7 
 Easter Sunday rolled around
 B                           C#m      B    F#7 
 in a country church for the lost and found
     E             F#7         E   F#7 E 
 oh, Sam was there against his will
 B                        C#m     B     F#7 
 as the preacher spoke on Calvary’s hill
    F#7                               E                   
 of how they took the master and they nailed him to a tree
 F#7 E F#7 (break)
 you could hear old Sam a cryin' as he fell down on his knees
 
 E                           B   
 I don't wanna drive another nail
 F#7 B (walk) B F#7 E
 I want to live my life for you I want to do it well
 E                                     
 you've got the scars on your two hands
       B                      
 that show where I have failed
 C#m                   F#7           B   
 lord, I don't want to drive another nail
 
 E                               B 
 I don't wanna drive another nail
 F#7 B (walk) B F#7 E
 I want to live my life for you I want to do it well
 E                                     
 you've got the scars on your two hands
       B                      
 that show where I have failed
 C#m(strum) F#7(strum) B(strum)
 lord, I don't want to drive another nail
