Baptism Cifra

[Verse 1]
 D          Bm          G              A7
The summer breeze made ripples on the pond
 D                       Bm            G            A7
And rattled through the reeds and the willow trees beyond
Bm            A            G                   D
Daddy in his good hat and momma in her Sunday dress
G                       F#m                 G       A7     D
Watched with pride as I stood there in the water up to my chest
 
[Pre- Chorus]
        C             G                   D
And the preacher spoke about the cleansing blood
G             D             Em              A7
As I sank my toes into that cool East Texas mud
 
[Chorus]
            D             Bm      G  A7       D
Then it was down with the old man up with the new
G         D                   Em        A7
Raised to walk in the ways of light and truth
  Bm            G                 D             G
I didn't see no angels just a few saints on the shore
      D           Bm                   G         A7          D
But I felt like a newborn baby cradled up in the arms of the Lord
 
[Verse 2]
        Bm    G                A7
Amazing grace oh how sweet the sound
D                      Bm            G             A7
There was glory in the air there was dinner on the ground
       Bm              A7        G               D
And my sins which were many were washed away and gone
G                    D        Em        A7       D
Along with a buffalo nickel I forgot to leave at home
 
[Pre-Chrous]
     C                   G                    D
That seemed like such a small small price to pay
G               D                  Em              A7
For the blessed peace of mind that came to me that day
 
[Chorus]
            D             Bm      G  A7       D
Then it was down with the old man up with the new
G         D                   Em        A7
Raised to walk in the ways of light and truth
  Bm            G                 D             G
I didn't see no angels just a few saints on the shore
      D           Bm                   G         A7          D
But I felt like a newborn baby cradled up in the arms of the Lord
 
[Bridge]
     C                 G         A7                        D
This road is long and dusty sometimes the soul it must be cleansed
       C                 G             A7
And I long to feel that water rushing over me again
 
[Chorus]
            D             Bm      G  A7       D
Then it was down with the old man up with the new
G         D                   Em        A7
Raised to walk in the ways of light and truth
  Bm            G                 D             G
I didn't see no angels just a few saints on the shore
      D           Bm                   G         A7          D
But I felt like a newborn baby cradled up in the arms of the Lord
