Family Bible Chords by Ricky Van Shelton

[D] _ _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
There's [C] a _ family [F] Bible _ [C] on the table _ _ _
_ [Am] Its page [D] is torn and hard [G] to _ read _ _
But [C] the _ family [F] _
Bible [C] on the table
_ Will _ _ [F] ever be [C] my key [G] to [C] memory _ _ _ _ _
At the close _ [F] of day when [C] work was _ over _ _
_ [Am] And when _ [D] the evening meal [G] was [G] _ _ _
done
Dad [C] would read to [F] us from the [C] family Bible _ _ _
And [F] we'd count our [C] many blessings [G] one [C] by _ one _ _
I [F] can see [Bb] us sitting round [F] the _ table _ _
When _ from the family Bible Dad [C] would _ read _ _
I can _ hear [F] my mother _ [C] softly singing _ _ _
Rock [F] of ages, [C] rock of [G] ages left [C] for _ me
This _ old _ world [F] of ours is [C] full of trouble _ _ _
This [Am] old _ world [D] would oh so [G] better be _ _ _
If [C] we'd _ find [F] more Bibles [C] on the table _ _
And mother [F] singing rock [C] of [G] ages left [C] for me _ _ _
I [F] can see [Bb] us sitting round [F] the table _ _ _
When from the family Bible Dad [C] would read _ _ _ _
I can _ hear [F] my mother _ [C] softly singing _ _
Rock [F] of ages, rock [C] of [G] ages left [C] for me
