Redemption

[Intro ]
Bm 

 
  Bm                       A 
 I'm a sinner that's the first thing that I said 
 Em 
 When I walked right through those stained glass 
 Bm 
 doors with a bottle in one hand 
  Bm 
 Preacher said God forgives 
  A Em 
 I said people don't, not enough time left in my life 
  Bm 
 to fix these wrongs 
 G D 
 I knew right then I'd been reaping what I'd sown 
 A Bm 
 He said if I'd repent right now, I'd walk the streets of gold 
 

 
 Bm 
 Can I get a witness 
 Bm 
 Looking for redemption 
       A     Em                     Bm 
 You better gather those Saints of old 
  Bm A 
 Can I get an Amen and a Hallelujah and every 
 Em Bm 
 other Holy word 
 Bm 
 Been wandering around instead of settlin down 
 A Em Bm 
 Carrying this heavy load 
 Bm 
 Can I get a witness 

 Looking for redemption 
 A 
 I'll need to drown in Holy water 
  Em Bm 
 To save my soul 
 

 
 Bm 
 I asked him what the hell do you know, you 
 A 
 can't be more than 25 
  Em 
 I was saved right there in that second row 
 Bm 
 Before you were alive 
  Bm A 
 Under that cross of Jesus is where I said my wedding vows 
  Em Bm 
 I broke them every one by one, left a wife two daughters and a son 
 G D 
 He said God forgives, I said people don't 
 A Bm 
 He reminded me of a promise with streets of gold 
 

 
 Bm 
 Can I get a witness 
 Bm 
 Looking for redemption 
              A           Em        Bm 
 You better gather those Saints of old 
 Bm A 
 Can I get an Amen and a Hallelujah and every 
 Em Bm 
 other Holy word

 A Em Bm 
 Carrying this heavy load 
 Bm 
 Can I get a witness 
 Bm 
 Looking for redemption 
  A

  Em Bm 
 To save my soul 
 

 
 Bm 
 Sought my answers in the bottom of the bottle 
  A 
 With my friends Jose and Jack 
 Em Bm 
 Left this town many years ago and I never even looked back 
 G D 
 Preacher said his daddy left him when he was three 
  A 
 Then he pulled out a crumpled up Polaroid 
  Bm 
 It was a picture of me 

{BREAK}
