Chords for Ashley McBryde - Holy Water

[G] They put us in the [Dm] cop car and I said, wait, wait, wait, wait, can I [E] take a picture? _
_ They didn't [N] like it.
Here's what the deal was.
They didn't tell me I was [A] opening for a Christian group
[Abm] called Ponte Grey.
And they said, [N] we need you to sing a hymn while you're on stage.
And I said, no hymn. _
[D] I _ [G] said, don't worry, my daddy was a preacher.
_ [D] _
So anyway, I said, I just wrote this tune called Holy Water and I think it's a gospel, that sounds like a gospel tune to [Eb] me.
And they said that'd be [E] lovely, because that's how they say it down there.
_ [Am] Anyway, this is what [D] happens.
Y'all can sing along with that first part.
[G] _ [Dm] You're _ _ _ a merry, _ jingling [D] _ breeze

[G] Father, hear my confession
I ain't had a prayer [Dm] in way too many years
Mary, I ain't seen her face
[C] She said her name, her brother [G] Grace
That's how I wound up at your place
[D] It's in your idea
_ Now _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ my head now, [G] thought I did it all down
Though there's just something about [D] bringing home the blues
I can't resist a real good [G] time
I swear I'm not the cheeky kind
But once again I find myself [Dm] with nothing left to lose
[G] I need salvation in a bottle
I need redemption [D] in a bag _
I _ _ [G] need your nondescript proof of forgiveness
Cause [D] I've only made it _ bad

_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ Just keep on coming, [G] I don't wanna feel nothing
Unless you got something to [Dm] change my ways
I'm the patron saint of bad [G] goodbyes
Heartbreak proof and twelve feet high
Don't bother saving me tonight
[D] It's too late, [G] I got salvation in a bottle
_ Seek forgiveness, [D] show me the way _
_ _ _ I [G] need your nondescript proof of forgiveness

[D] I _ _ _ _ _ [G] need your nondescript proof of forgiveness _
Cause I've [Dm] only made it bad _ _ _
_ [G] Left Mary, burned, she boxed up
