Song: I Was There Tab
capo 3
(Em) (G) (C)
(G)I was there that night in Bethle(C)hem
And when (Em)Neil and the boys came (D)to the moon in that (C)tin can
At (G)Gettysburg, Omaha Beach, in (C)Vietnam
I heard (Em)every soldier's (D)cry and every (C)mama's prayer
I was (G)there
(G)I was there when you took your (C)first breath
And when you (Em)lit that stolen (D)Lucky Strike and liked to (C)choke to death
When you were (G)waist deep in Carter's Creek and (C)preacher John
Dunked you (Em)down in the water and (D)raised you up for (C)air
(D)I was (G)there
I'm (C)always around, I was (D)then and I am now
And (G)I'll be here (Bm)when tomorrow (C) comes
When a (Em)road comes to an end, I'm (G)where you start again
I'm (C)never farther (Bm)than a word a(Am)way, you've always got a (D)friend
When your (G)grandma passed, I was (C)in that house
And when your (Em)grandpa ran down the (D)streets of gold to show (C)her around
(D)I was (G)there
(C) (Em) (Am) (D)
I'm (C)always around, I was (D)then and I am now
And (G)I'll be here (Bm)when tomorrow (C) comes
When a (Em)road comes to an end, I'm (G)where you start again
I'm (C)never farther (Bm)than a word a(Am)way, you've always got a (D)friend
(G)I was there, last night on (C)Highway 9
When you (Em)answered the phone and (D)ran right through that (C)stop sign
I was (G)in the cab of that (Bm)big rig, in that (C)trucker's ear
Made him (Em)swerve to the right and (D)miss you by a (C)hair
I was (G)there (Bm)
If you're (Em)feeling alone look (D)up I'm the one (C) who answers prayers (D)
And I'm always (Em)there (D) (C) (Em) (Am) (D) (G)
