ROCK OF AGES

Live in Denmark 1971 DVD

G                               D
It rained all the way to Cincinnati
        C                       G
With our mattresses on top of the car
G                   D            EM
Us kids we're eating crackers and bologna
    G                      D                 G
Papa kept on driving, never stopped once at a bar

G                              D
Then mama started talking about Jesus
D                           EM
And how our lives we're gonna be
     G                               D
While papa bought a used tire in Columbus
C                    D                       G
Mama rocked the baby, 'til all her tears were gone
Chorus:

G             D                  C
She said your papa is a good man, and don't you kids forget it
G                           D (Progress deeper.)       C
Whiskey's trying to ruin him but I know the Lord won't let it.

G                             D
Then we sang Amazing Grace and Bringing In The Sheep
       C    (Pause) C        G     D       G
Rock Of Ages        Rock  Of Ages  left for Me

SPOKEN G chord

I remember when papa finally did give up drinking. I think mama was the only one on 
that really believed he could.
I remember a lot of times we packed up everything we owned and started out for some new 
And through it all mama's faith was the one thing strong enough to finally do some good.

Chorus:

G             D                  C
She said your papa is a good man, and don't you kids forget it
G                           D (Progress deeper.)       C
Whiskey's trying to ruin him but I know the Lord won't let it.

G                             D
Then we sang Amazing Grace and Bringing In The Sheep
       C    (Pause) C        G     D       G
Rock Of Ages        Rock  Of Ages  left for Me
 
Chorus:
