Song: The Way He Was Raised Tab
(G)He always wore those worn out flip-flops
(Em)Spent hours in his Daddy's workshop
(C)he loved being on the water
Fishing with His fr(G)iends
He always listened to the old folks
(Em)When they'd tell stories and crack jokes
(C)Didn't talk back to his Mama
When she got onto (G)Him
Oh, (C)that's just the way He was raised
Had to (G)finish all His (D/F#)chores 'fore He could (Em7)go outside and (Em)play
they (C)always went to (G/B)church that's were he (Am7)learned how to (Am)pray
And (C)that's just the (D)way He was (G)raised (Em,G,Em,G)
He grew His hair out when He got older
(Em)Grew it clear down to His shoulders
(C)Started hanging with the outcasts
When He went off to (G)town
Some called Him a troublemaker
(Em)Even some said a lawbreaker
(C)No matter how they talked about Him
He never put nobody (G)down
'Cause (C)that's just the way He was raised
When (G)people start to (D/F#)gossip, (Em7)He'd just walk a(Em)way
He (C)always loved his (G/B)neighbor no (Am7)matter what they'd (Am)say
Oh, (C)that's just the (D)way He was (G)raised
On a (Em)cross, on a (Am)hill
That (C)longhaired boy was (G)killed
All our (Em)sins washed a(Am)way
When He walked out of that (D)grave
Oh, (C)that's just the way He was raised
there's (G)no way we can (D/F#)measure
The (Em7)sacrifice He (Em)made
He (C)knew He had to (G/B)die
For our (Am7)debt to be (Am)paid
Oh, (C)that's just the (D)way He was (Em)raised
It (C)took the hand of (G/B)God to (Am7)roll the stone a(Am)way
And (C)that's just the (D)way He was (G)raised (Em)
Yeah, (C)that's just the (D)way He was raised (G)
