[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

  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

            Bm                   G         A7          Bm   G  A7  D
Felt like a newborn baby cradled up in the arms of the Lord
