Verse 1
GC
Lord I’ve been feelin’
EmD
Like the world has got me down
GC
Dusty bibles on the shelf
EmD
That no one passed around
Chorus
C
Lord I’ve been runnin’
G
From the things I’ve done
EmD
These dusty bibles won’t save everyone
C
But mama says a prayer
G
Every single day
EmD
Maybe one of these mornings
G
The good Lord’ll hear what she says
Verse 2
GC
I grew up in a small town
EmD
Where the churches all have steeples
GC
Where the good Lord loves you
EmD
Even when you’re broken people
