Verse 1

  [G2]The room gr[C2/G]ew still as she made her way to Jesus
She[Cm6/G] stumbles through the tear[G]s th[Cm]at mad[F]e h[Cm]er bl[G]ind
  [G2]She felt such pa[C2/G]in, some spoke in anger
Heard fo[A7]lks whisper, th[Dsus7]ere's no pl[D7]ace h[D#dim7]ere for her kind.
  [Em7]Still on she came, t[Bm7]hrough the shame that flushed her face
Until[Cmaj7] at last she knelt b[F13]efore His feet.
And[G/D] though she spoke no words
Eve[D/E]rything she s[Em7]aid was heard,
As s[Am7]he poured her l[G2/B]ove for the Master
F[Cmaj7]rom her box o[Dsus7]f Alabaster.

Chorus

  [C/D]And I've com[G2]e to pour my[Esus7] praise[E7] on Him like oil
From [Am7]Mary's Alab[D/A]aster [Am7]Box
Don't[Am7] be angry[E/G#] if I wash His f[C/G]eet with my tears
An[D/F#]d I dry [Bm7]them with m[Am7]y hair[C/D]
   G   Gaug
You weren't there the night He found me.
You did[Cmaj7] not feel what I felt
When He wr[Asus7]apped Hi[A7]s love all around me.
An[G/D]d you don't know t[Am7]he cost o[C/D]f the oi[G]l in[Cm6/G] my Alabaster Box.

Verse 2

[G2]I can't forget [C2/G]the way life used to be.
I wa[Cm6/G]s a prisoner to the si[G]n th[Cm]at had[F] me[Cm] bound[G]
[G2]I spent my[C2/G] days pouring my life without measure.
Into [A7]a little treasure [Dsus7]box I tho[D7]ught [D#dim7]I found.
  [Em7]Until the day[Bm7] when Jesus came to me
And hea[Cmaj7]led my soul with[C#dim] the wonder of His touch.
So n[G/D]ow I'm giving back t[D/E]o Him all the praise He's worthy of.
I've bee[Am7]n forgiven a[G2/B]nd tha[Cmaj7]t's why I[Dsus7] love Him so much.

Chorus 2

  [D/E]And I've co[A2]me to pour m[F#sus7]y praise o[F#7]n Him like oil
From [Bm7]Mary's Alab[E/B]aster[Bm7] Box
Don't[Bm7] be angry[F#/A#] if I wash His f[D/A]eet with my tears
  E/G# C#m7   F#m7 Bm7 D/E
And I dry them with my hair, …my hair.
You wer[A]en't there[Aaug] the night Jesus found me.
You did[Dmaj7] not feel what I felt
When He wr[Bsus7]apped Hi[B7]s love all around me.
An[A/E]d you don't know th[Dm/E]e cost of the oil
Oh[A/E], you don't know th[Dm6/E]e cost of my praise.
[A/E]You don't know the [Bm7]cost of the oil
In [D/E]my Alaba[F6]ster[Bbmaj9] Box.[A2]
