Kenny Chesney / Randy Travis
D F#m G A
The summer breeze made ripples on the pond
D F#m G A
Rattled through the reeds and the willow trees beyond
Bm A G D/F#
Daddy in his good hat, momma in her Sunday dress
G D/F#
Watched with pride as I stood there
G A D
in the water up to my chest
C G D
And the preacher spoke about the cleansing blood
G D/F# Em Asus A
And I sank my toes into that east Tennessee mud
D F#m
Then it was down with the old man,
G A D
Up with the new
G D/F# Em Asus A
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
Bm G
I didn't see no angels
D/F# G
Just a few saints on the shore
D D/Db Bm Bm/A
I felt like a newborn baby
G A D
Cradled up in the arms of the Lord
D F#m G A
Amazing Grace, oh how sweet the sound
D F#m
There was glory in the air,
G A
there was dinner on the ground
Bm A G D/F#
My sins which were many, were washed away and gone
G D/F#
Along with a buffalo nickle,
G A D
I forgot to leave at home
C G D
That seemed like such a small small price to pay
G D/F#
For the blessed peace of mind,
Em Asus A
that came to me that day
D F#m
It was down with the old man,
G A D
Up with the new
G D/F# Em Asus A
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
Bm G
I didn't see no angels
D/F# G
Just a few saints on the shore
D D/Db Bm Bm/A
But I felt like a newborn baby
G A D
Cradled up in the arms of the Lord
C G
This road is long and dusty
Em A D
Sometimes a soul it must me cleansed
C G
And I long to feel that water
Em Asus A
Rushing over me again
D F#m G A D
Down with the old man up with the new
G D/F# Em Asus A
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
Bm G D/F# G
Didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore
D D/Db Bm Bm/A
I felt like a newborn baby
G A Bm E
Cradled up in the arms of the Lord
D D/Db Bm Bm/A
I felt like a newborn baby
G A D
Cradled up in the arms of the Lord
