tribute to his father-in-law, the stuff he was married to if you follow the grass gospel music or if you follow the Caterer videos or anything like [G] that.
It's all really with the Isaacs family.
One of the best, probably the first family to do grass gospel music these [G] days.
Some of the best that they were being, the patriarch of that family is a guy named Joe Isaacs, [A] their dad.
And Joe [G] wrote, he wrote a bunch of the songs that they recorded, he wrote some 400 and some odd songs over the years.
John [D] put about 14 of those [G] and put together a collection of tributes to Joe Isaacs.
[C] I don't know which one he's going to do for us.
[G] [B] You know the guitarist is an Ararat Virginian.
There's a fella here that knows where [C] Ararat's at.
Kid, you should [Gm] go check it out.
[G]
[F#] [G]
Alright, [C] nice.
[G] Anyway, we'll do this with him.
Thank you.
Well, that's [D#] John Bolton.
[C#] Hey, [E] so glad to see you folks.
[G] Always wondered, well is anybody going to show up?
You know, because this is way down the hall somewhere.
Just never [A#] know, but it's good to see you all.
This is my fourth time [C] being here.
I was here a fifth year one time with Dave Crowe.
And then I came with the [G] Isaacs family and with them one single.
So, for [E] God's part, this is our fourth time and we just appreciate you all having us and [F] staying with us this afternoon.
[Em] This song I want to sing is a song that [Gm] Joe wrote many years [C] ago.
But it's a [G] really good, dimly-lit song and I love [C] songs like that.
It's [F#m] called Tired of Singing.
[C] When the prodigal son returned [F] home again
With no shears on his [C] face
No battered by [G] sin
His father [C] hugged him
Wading along a dusty [F] road
And he brought [C] him a little rain
And a little air
So he'll go and kill the cow
[F]
In his father's land
There's plenty to eat
[D] The table is spread
[G]
My son [C] was long
He's back home again
[F]
For he is [C] from tired
[Em] [Am]
[C] Of living in sin
[G] I'll say to my [C] father
I'm not worthy to see
[F]
But if you let me [C] come home
I'll be a servant boy
[G]
I've lost all [C] I have
Lord, I'm hungry and cold
[F]
And he [C] said, my son
[G] Welcome back to [C] the fold
[C] So he'll go and kill the cow
[F] In his father's [C] land
There's plenty to eat
[D] The table is spread
[G]
My son [C] was long
He's back [F] home again
For he is [C] from tired
[Em] [Am]
Of [C] living in sin
[G] Yes, he is [C] from tired
[Em] [Am]
[G] Of living [C] in sin
