Yes I know when Jesus saved me (saved my soul)

The very moment he forgave me (made me whole) 
E                     F#                               B7 
He took away my heavy burdens Lord he gave me peace within (peace within) 
N/C                 E 
Satan can't make me doubt it (I won't doubt it) 
E                       A 
It's real and I'm gonna shout it (I'm gonna shout it) 
A                   E             B7             E 
I was there when it happened so I guess I oughta know

I don't care who tells me salvation is not real
                     B7                   E
Though the world may argue that we cannot feel
                     E                        A
Go get your burdens lifted and your sins will go 
                     E             B7               E
I was there when it happened so I guess I oughta know
