Only Jesus

By: Casting Crowns

Transpose:
VERSE 1
D
  Make it count, leave a mark, build a name for yourself
A
  Dream your dreams, chase your heart, above all else
G			  D
  Make a name the world remembers
D
  But all an empty world can sell is empty dreams
A
  I got lost in the light when it was up to me 
G			     D
  To make a name the world remembers
     Bm		       G         D
But Jesus is the only name to remember

CHORUS
    D			         A
And I, I don’t want to leave a legacy
			G
I don’t care if they remember me
      D
Only Jesus
    D			  A
And I, I’ve only got one life to live
		      G
I’ll let every second point to Him
      D
Only Jesus

VERSE 2
D
  All the kingdoms built, all the trophies won
A
  Will crumble into dust when it’s said and done
G			D	
  Cause all that really matters


D
  Did I live the truth to the ones I love
A
  Was my life the proof that there is only One
G			  D
  Whose name will last forever

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Bm		  G
Jesus is the only name
D		  F#m
Jesus is the only name
Bm		  G		D   F#m
Jesus is the only name to remember
Bm		   G
Jesus is the only name
D		   F#m
Jesus is the only name
Bm
Jesus is the only name to remember

CHORUS

ENDING
D			A
I don’t want to leave a legacy
		       G
I don’t care if they remember me
      D
Only Jesus
