Johnny Cash - If I Give My Soul chords
Start Jamming...
[A] Get off stage, Cash.
Okay.
Down a dangerous road
I [D] have come [A] to where I'm standing
With a heavy heart
And my hat clutched in [E] my hand
Such a [A] foolish man
God [D] ain't known [A] no greater sinner
I [D] have come [A] in search of Jesus
[E] Hoping he will [A]
understand
If I give [D] my soul
Will he clean [A] these clothes I'm wearing?
If I give [D] my soul
Will he [Am] put new boots on [E] my feet?
If I bow [A] my head
And [D] beg God [A] for his forgiveness
Will [D] he breathe [A] new life within me
[E] And bring her back [A] to me?
I had a woman once
She was kind and she was gentle
Had a child by me
Who grew up to be [E] a man
I had a steady [A] job
Till I [D] started [A] into drinking
Then [D] I [A] started making music
[E] Traveling with the [A] Devil's band
Oh, the years [D] went by
Like a mighty [A] rush of egos
Our [D] dreams and plans
[A] Were all scattered in [E] the wind
And it's a [A] lonesome life
When you [D] lose [A] the ones you live for
[D] If I make [A] my peace with Jesus
Will [E] they take me back [A] again?
If I give [D] my soul
Will he stop [A] my hands from shaking?
If I give [D] my soul
Will my [A] son love me [E] again?
If I give [A] my soul
And [D] she [A] knows I really mean it
[D] If I give [A] my soul to Jesus
[E] Will she take me back [A] again?
If I give [D] my soul
Will he clean [A] these clothes I'm wearing?
If I give [D] my soul
Will he [A] put new boots on [E] my feet?
If I bow [A] my head
And [D] beg God for [A] his forgiveness
[D] Will he [A] breathe new breath within me
[E] And bring her back to me?
