Now here's a little story happened long ago
E7
One day Ezekiel went out for a stroll
E7
Walkin' by the river low and behold
E7
Down came 4 angels in a Cadillac Gold
E7
He said, "Swing down sweet chariot come on
E7
And give me a ride"
E7
So they scooped 'em up, the rig was souped up
E7
Man it had TVs inside
    F#7                                          E7
Ol' Zeke was surprised 'cause his eyes had seen beyond
E7
His wildest dreams, he'd go on to see a thousand times


E7
We'll paint that number eight on the driver's side
E7
That's how old I was when I gave Jesus my life
          F#7             E7
I stepped right up and got washed in the blood
       NC
Just a little kid singin' 'bout a chariot
  A7                                   E7
A big gold eagle painted on the hood chariot
