Family Bible — текст песни (George Jones)

[C] There`s A Fam`ly [F] Bible on the [C] table
Each [Am] page is torn and [D] hard to [G7] read
But [C] The Fam`ly [F] Bible on the [C] table
Will [F] ever be my [C] key to [G] memo-[C] ries.

[C] At the close of [F] day when work was [C] over
And [Am] when the evening [D] meal was [G7] done
Dad would [C] read to us [F] from The Fam`ly [C] Bible
And we`d [F] count our many [C] blessings [G7] one by [C] one.

Refrain:
I can [F] see us [Bb] sittin` `round the [F] table
When from The Fam`ly Bible Dad would [C] read
(1) I can hear my [F] mother softly [C] singing
(2) I can hear my [F] mama softly [C] singing
Rock of Ages, [F] Rock of [C] Ages [G7] cleft for [C] me.

This old world of ours is full of troubles
But this world would oh, so better be
If we`d find more Bibles on the table
And mothers singing Rock of Ages cleft for me.

Refrain:
