Baptism Kenny Chesney
Capo on 2nd Fret
Verse
[D] The summer[Bm] breeze made [G]ripples on the [A]pond
[D] And rattled through the l[Bm]eaves and the w[G]illow trees be[A]yond.
[G] Daddy in his g[A]ood had, and m[G]amma in her Sunday d[G/F#]ress
[G] Watched with pride as I s[G/F#]tood there in the w[Em]ater up [A]to my c[D]hest.
Pre-Chorus
And the p[C]reacher spoke a[Bm]bout the cleansing b[D]lood.
[G] I sank my [G/F#]toes into that [Em]east Tennessee [A]mud.
Chorus
And it was d[D]own with the [Bm]old man, [G] u[A]p with the n[D]ew.
[G] Raised to [G/F#]walk in the way of the l[Em]ight and t[A]ruth.
[Bm] I didn't see no a[G]ngels, just a f[D]ew saints on the s[G]hore,
but I f[D]elt like a n[Bm]ew-born b[G]aby [G/F#] cradled [Em]up in the a[A]rms of the L[D]ord.
Verse
Amazing Grace, Oh how sweet the sound...there was
Glory in the air. There was dinner on the ground.
And my sins went for many, were washed away and gone
along with a buffalo nickel that I forgot to leave at home.
Pre-Chorus 2
But that seemed like such a small small price to pay
for the blessed peace of mind that came to me that day
Chorus
Pre-Chorus 3
That r[C]oad is long and d[Bm]usty, sometimes the s[G]oul it m[A]ust be c[D]leansed
And I [C]long to feel that w[Bm]ater rushing o[G]ver me a[A]gain
