Gospel Changes
J. Williams (klr)
[[D]] - [[A]] - [[Bm]] -[[Bm]/e] - [[G]] - [[Bm]] - [[G]] - [[A]] - [[D]]
The [[D]] Prodigal Son, he'd [[A]] been away a [[Bm]] while
He was [[G]] working his way back [[A]] home now over [[D]] many a ragged
mile
When he [[G]] finally crossed the [[Em]] river
And his [[D]] father [[F#m]] saw him [[Bm]] near [[G]]
There was a [[D]] joyful sound [[A]] for all the world to [[D]] hear
I listened to what the [[A]] Good Book said,
And it [[G]] made good sense to [[Bm]] me
Talkin' 'bout [[D]] reapin' what you're [[F#m]] sowin'
People [[G]] tryin' to be [[A]] free
Now we've [[Bm]] got new names and [[G]] faces,
[[F#]] This time a [[Bm]] round,
[[G]] Gospel [[D]] Changes, Lord, [[A]] still goin' [[D]] down
[[D]] Jesus, He [[A]] did not doubt His [[Bm]] gifts
Though He [[G]] knew that He [[A]] had not long to [[D]] live
He [[G]] took care of the [[Em]] business
Of [[D]] teachin' us [[F#m]] how to [[Bm]] fly [[G]]
Then He [[D]] bowed his head [[A]] and laid down to [[D]] die
I listened to what the [[A]] Good Book said,
And it [[G]] made good sense to [[Bm]] me
Talkin' 'bout [[D]] reapin' what you're [[F#m]] sowin'
People [[G]] tryin' to be [[A]] free
Now we've [[Bm]] got new names and [[G]] faces,
[[F#]] This time a [[Bm]] round,
[[G]] Gospel [[D]] Changes, Lord, [[A]] still goin' [[D]] down
[[D]] Jerusalem, I [[A]] see you standing [[Bm]] high
But if you [[G]] lose your sal [[A]] vation there'll be
[[D]] no tears left to cry
Now [[G]] some men worship a [[Em]] Golden Calf
While [[D]] others are [[F#m]] bought and [[Bm]] sold [[G]]
And if we [[D]] live like that [[A]] brother we pay the [[D]] toll
I listened to what the [[A]] Good Book said,
And it [[G]] made good sense to [[Bm]] me
Talkin' 'bout [[D]] reapin' what you're [[F#m]] sowin'
People [[G]] tryin' to be [[A]] free
Now we've [[Bm]] got new names and [[G]] faces,
[[F#]] This time a [[Bm]] round,
[[G]] Gospel [[D]] Changes, Lord, [[A]] still goin' [[D]] down (2x)
Still goin', [[G]] down, yeah, yeah, [[D]] yeah, still goin' [[G]] down
[[G]] Gospel [[D]] Changes, Lord, [[A]] still goin' [[D]] down
I hope that one was enjoyed.
