Verse:           A      D            A
       There's a family bible on the table
            F#m   F#               E
       It's pages worn and hard to read
               A      D            A
       But the family bible on the table
            D          E           A
       Will ever be my key to memories

Verse:                D                 A
        At the end of day when work was over
        F#m          F#               E
        And when the evening meal was done
                  A       D                 A
        Dad would read to us from the family bible
                 D              E                A
        And we'd count our many blessings one by one

Chorus:       D      G                 D
        I can see us sittin' round the table
                                          A
        As from the family bible Dad would read
                          D            A
        And I can hear my momma softly singin'
                     D       A    E         A
        Rock of ages Rock of Ages there for me

Verse:               A        D                      A
        Now this old world of ours is filled with trouble
                     F#m         F#           E
        But this old world would oh so better be
              A        D                A
        If we had more bibles round the tables
                       D       A    E         A
        Mother singin' Rock of ages there for me

Chorus

Outro:               D       A    E         A
        Rock of ages Rock of ages there for me

Try playing a B7 after the F#m; I think you'll like it much better. Thanks for the tab!

In the second line of the Chorus try a G over the word Bible. I'm going off a live recording of Willie and Johnny Cash singing it from VH1 Storytellers. But it sounds like there is a change there. I also agree with the B7 as opposed to the F#. The F# after the F#m doesn't work.
