This is the way I play the song Baptism. Done by Kenny Chesney and Randy Travis.
Intro:D, Bm, G, A
D Bm G A
The summer breeze made ripples on the pond
D Bm G
And rattled through the reeds and the willow
A
trees beyond
Bm A G D
Daddy in his good hat momma in her sunday dress
D Bm
watched with pride as I stood there in that
G A D
water up to my chest
C G D
And the Preacher spoke about the cleansing blood
G D Bm A
As I sank my toes into that cool east Texas mud
Course
A D Bm G A D
And it was down with the old man up with the new
G D Bm A
Raised to walk in the ways of light and truth
Bm G D
I didn't see no angels just a few saints on the
G
Shore
D A Bm G
I felt like a new born baby craddled up in
A D
The arms of the lord.
D Bm G A
Amazing Grace oh how sweet the sound
D Bm G
There was glory in the air there was dinner on
A
the ground
Bm A G
And my sins which were many were washed away and
D
gone
D Bm G A
Along with a buffalo nickle I forgot to leave
D
At home
C G
But that seemed like such a small, small price
D
to pay
G D Bm
For the blessed peace of mind that came to me
A
that day
repeat course:
C G
This road is long and dusty
Bm A D
Sometimes the soul it must be cleansed
C G Bm
And I long to feel that water rushing over me
A
Again
Repeat Course:
D A Bm
I feel like a new born baby
G A D
Craddle up in the arms of the lord
Outro:
Bm G A D
