G       D
This beat up bible
      G      D
Dusty on the shelf
G            D
Worn out and torn up
D
It don't look like much
                            G
But it will get you through hell
                      D
It's been held in the hands
           G           D
Of all the ones that I love
            G               D
It might be falling off the binding
                                 G
But every line in it still holds up
             D
This beat up bible
G           D
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse]
     G     D
That old recliner
        G      D
In this living room
        G             D
She was sitting right there
G             D
Teaching me a prayer
             G
All that she knew
                       D
About the words on the pages
          G        D
About the greatest gift
          G        D
Where you find the truth
    G        D
You find the proof
                  G
Of how love still is
                D
In this beat up bible

[Chorus]
G
I can hear her saying 
G
Baby, when you praying
D
Give him all your worries
                       A
He'll give you all you need
G
When you're crying and you're hurting
G
And nothing else is working
D
All you've got to do 
          A
Is just believe
                G    D
In this beat up bible
                G    D
In this beat up bible oh yeah

[Verse]
D
I was holding her hand
             G          D
When she was on her way home
          G          D
She said, baby don't cry
             G       D
I'm going to see the one
                    G
Who rolled away the stone

[Chorus]
G
I can hear her saying
G
Baby, when you praying
D
Give him all your worries
                       A
He'll give you all you need
    G
I'm crying and I'm hurting
    G
And nothing else is working
      D   
So, I open up the pages
             A
And start to read

[Outro]
     G       D
This beat up bible
      G      D
Dusty on the shelf
     G       D
Worn out and torn up
D
Don't look like much
                          G
But it'll get you through hell...
