Still (G)says July, (A)nine-teen fifty-(D)four

(D) There's a piece of that (G)ladder I (A)climbed where he couldn't (D)see

(A#m)And said, (G)"Son, (A)that won't make you a (D)man"

(Chorus)
(G) Today the sun was shinin' as the (D)family gathered round
(G) Teardrops were fallin' as we (D)laid him in the ground (A)

And (G)thank God for the (A)blessings you (D)receive"
