Family Bible by Ernest Tubb
Family Bibleby Ernest Tubb
GCG
There's a family Bible on the table
EmA7D7
Its pages torn and hard to read
GCG
But the family Bible on the table
CGD7G
Will ever be my key to memo-ries
CG
At the end of day when work was over
EmA7D7
And when the evening meal was done
GCG
Dad would read to us from the family Bible
CGD7G
And we'd count our many blessings one by one
CFC
I can see us sitting round the table
G
When from the family Bible dad would read
CG
And I can hear my mother softly singing
CGD7G
Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me
CG
This old world of ours is full of trouble
EmA7D7
But this old world would also better be
GCG
If we'd find more Bibles on the tables
CGD7G
And mothers singing rock of ages cleft for me
CFC
I can see us sitting round the table
G
When from the family Bible dad would read
CG
And I can hear my mother softly singing
CGD7G
Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me
