Baptized By Fire

       D             G           D 
I was headed down a path of destruction 
                    G             D 
With a pain that I just couldn't kill 
     G                       D 
I remember the dark and the empty 
                   A7            D 
And the hope that nothing could fill 

    G                 D 
But I know Jesus was with me 
G       D           A 
Even in my darkest time 
        D            G        D 
He was there when I hit rock bottom 
                  A7         D 
And at the lowest low of my high 
 

 
           Bm             D 
I've been bathed in holy water 
       Bm7                  A 
And it washed all my sins away 
       D         G           D 
But I had to be baptized by fire 
             A7       D 
In order to truly be saved

        D              G          D 
As the sun breaks the trees this morning 
          G            D 
And I hit my knees to pray 
   G                         D 
I think of the day that's before me 
                A         D 
And the time I let slip away 

   G                    D 
A vision of mama's old Bible 
      G              D          A7 
On a shelf that she kept on display 
   D           G            D 
Reminds me of where it all started 
                A          D 
And who led me out of the flame 
 

 
           Bm             D 
I've been bathed in holy water 
        Bm                  A 
And it washed all my sins away 
       D         G           D 
But I had to be baptized by fire 
             A        D 
In order to truly be saved 

   D         Bm          D 
I had to be baptized by fire 
             A        D 
In order to truly be saved
