Old Time Glory

• E

E        E     
Mhmmmm   mhmmm

A        E
Mhmmmm   mhmmm

E        E
Ohoooo   Ohooo

B7      
Ohoooo   wohoo

A
Ohoho

        CHORUS

E
Lord lay me down

E
In the evening

A
Lowered in the ground

E
When I'm cold

E
Lord lay me down

E
And when I'm leaving

B7               A
Carry on my very soul


        VERSE 1

E
Scripture say that in the last days the light of rain comes

E
I try to see it now, I climb the ladder rung

A
We need that old dream, youngin's gotta prophecize

E
People need a glimpse of hope if only through the prophet's eyes

E
Heaven knows that people perish when their vision dies

E
Fear will kill you man and unbelief will paralyze

A
But we prepared to die that ain't but a journey home

B7
But while we still survive, lordy let your will be known

E
This man before us was a friend and a leader

E
A compassionate father and a sturdy believer

A
Seems the tender age of fifty just too early to leave us

B7
We ain't questionin' your will but God please show us your reasons


        CHORUS

E
Lord lay me down

E
In the evening

A
Lowered in the ground

E
When I'm cold

E
Lord lay me down

E
And when I'm leaving

B7               A
Carry on my very soul


        VERSE 2- BIG JOE

E
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

E
I hope I find some when my time comes around

A
They laid my mama in the ground the morning I was born and now 

E
You're singing that it's evening but the sun ain't gone down

E
And even now the shadow of this crown 

E
Remind me how without the king I wouldn't be around

A
And something in the sound of this song as we lay me down sounds like

B7
Something, but that's so long ago now

E
And now I'll guard this bar, fight hard for the patrons

E
Your king is gone but I carry on the administration

A
Know this: if you need a hand look to these fists

B7
Forever and a day they stay clenched, long live the king!

        
        CHORUS

E
Lord lay me down

E
In the evening

A
Lowered in the ground

E
When I'm cold

E
Lord lay me down

E
And when I'm leaving

B7               A
Carry on my very soul

E
Lord lay me down

E
In the evening

A
Lowered in the ground

E
When I'm cold

E
Lord lay me down

E
And when I'm leaving

B7               A
Carry on my very soul
