Chesney Kenny - Baptism 3 guitar tab

rian D. Wells)

This is how I think this song should be played. I noticed some

discrepancies on the entries existing in the archives now. Maybe this will

help.

D G

The summer breeze, made ripples on the pond

D Bm G A

and rattled through the reeds and the willow trees beyond

Bm F# G D

Daddy in his good hat, mama in her Sunday dress

G D G A

D

watched with pride, as I stood there in the water up to my chest

C/G (step down Bass) D

And the preacher spoke about the cleansing blood

G G/F# Em A

and I sank my toes into that east Tennessee mud

D A

(CHORUS) Then it was down with the old man

G D

Up with the new

G G/F# Em A

Raised to walk in the way of light and truth

Bm G D G

Didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore

D Bm G-G/F#

But I felt like a newborn baby

Em A D

cradled up in the arms of the Lord

D G A

Amazing Grace, Oh how sweet the sound

D Bm G A

There was glory in the air, there was dinner on the ground

Bm F# G D

My sins which were many, were washed away and gone

G D G A D

Along with the buffalo nickel, I forgot to leave at home

C/G (step down bass) D

That seems like such a small small price to pay

G G/F# Em A

For the blessed peace of mind, that came to me that day

(CHORUS)

C/G (bass down)

This road is long and dusty

G A D

sometimes a soul it must be cleansed

C/G (bass down)

And I long to feel that water

G A

rushing over me again

D A G D

Down with the old man, Up with the new

G D A

Raised to walk in the way of light and truth

Bm G D G

didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore

D Bm G-G/F#

But I felt like a newborn Baby

Em A Bm

cradled up in the arms of the Lord

D Bm G-G/F#

Yes I felt like a new born Baby

Em A D

cradled up in the arms of the Lord
