Dear Friend

This is an old one by Charlie Peacock. It's a beautiful song, with a really powerful message about God's timing. The chords are kind of repetitive, but you can make it sound really good if you finger pick on the verses, and then strum on the chorus. Any questions, please mail me. Dear Friend Charlie Peacock G D Cmaj9 Dear friend, there's a story goin'round says you're gonna be married= soon G D But you've been sayin'that for years, Cmaj9 and there can be no wedding without a groom G D Cmaj9 You said he's gone away to make a place for you and Him G D Cmaj9 Oh you know He's gonna come back, but you just don't know when G D Cmaj9 Dear friends He is not slow in keeping His promises G D Cmaj9 As some understand slowness to be G D Cmaj9 Keep a watch out, don't lose faith, He said He would come for you G D Cmaj9 He's gonna come for you, you wait and see G D Cmaj9 Dear friend, people joke, they laugh and they make fun G D Cmaj9 When you tell 'em all about the groom who's gonna come G D Cmaj9 He's been gone a long long time, are there any doubts to confess G D Cmaj9 Do you wonder if you're ever gonna wear that wedding dress Cmaj9: 030230 (A regular C would be 010230) I use a standard D, and I form the G with only two fingers (i.e. 3000x3 muting the A string with the finger that's making the root G) -- Just my suggestions... Enjoy, and God Bless Chris Slater crslater@ucdavis.edu
