The Statler Brothers – Song Of David (Guitar)

C             A
David, son of Jesse

         F                D
Shepherd to   his fathers sheep

           C                  A
Played the harp when Saul got weary

A7      F       G                C
Rocked the giant till he was fast asleep

C                              A7
People prayed when Saul killed thousands

           F                        D
When David killed ten thousand they cheered

             C              A7  A
And all that noise they saw angry

        F            G               C
And the shepherd was on the lamb for years

F           G           C
David was a man down in Israel

Asus4                                 D  G
Fighter, lover, shepherd, king, outlaw

    F                  G                C        A7
And through it all God loved him and forgave him

D         G                 C   A7   D   G  C
David the man who'd done it all

C                 A7  A
Bathsheba wife of  Uri -ah

       F                           D
Took a bath under David's watchful eye

           C                A7  A
He fell in love and took her bo - dy

        F     G            C
Then he sent Uriah out to die

   C                     A
He was weak like you and I are

         F                   D
And as a sinner David did his part

    C                 A7    A
But God said this man Dav - id

   F     G             C
Is a man after my own heart

F         G              C
David was a man down in Israel

A7                                  D    G
Fighter, lover, shepherd, king, outlaw

    F                  G                C        A7
And through it all God loved him and forgave him

D         G                 C    A7
David the man who'd done it all

   D     G                    C     A7
Ah David the man who'd done it all
