VERSE 1
DBmGA
The summer breeze made ripples on the pond
DBmGA
And rattled through the reeds and the willow trees beyond
BmAGD
Daddy in his good hat and mama in her Sunday dress
DBmGAD
Watched with pride as I stood there in the water up to my chest
CGD
And the preacher spoke about the cleansing Blood
GDBmA
As I sank my toes into that cool East Texas mud
CHORUS
DBm
And it was down will the old man
GAD
Up with the new
GDBmA
Raised to walk in the ways of light and truth
BmGDG
I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore
DABm
And I felt like a new-born baby
GAD
Cradled up in the arms of the Lord
VERSE 2
DBmGA
Amazing grace, oh how sweet the sound
DBmGA
There was glory in the air, there was dinner on the ground
BmAGD
And my sins which were many, were washed away and gone
DBmGAD
Along with a buffalo nickel I forgot to leave at home
CGD
But that seemed like such a small, small price to pay
GDBmA
For the blessed peace of mind that came to me that day
TO CHORUS
CG
This road is long and dusty,
BmAD
Sometimes the soul, it must be cleansed
CGBmA
And I long to feel that water, rushing over me again
TO CHORUS
