I Saw The Light chords and lyrics - OLA BELLE REED

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
You know, [G]a lot of the old folk songs,
regardless of their stories,
you should do them the original way,
and they're not meant to hurt or harm anybody,
but if you change the story,
then you don't have the truth of the matter.
It's just exactly like history.
You know, the truth is something that's hard to face,
even I. If I get in a tight squeeze, you know, all of us,
I've started a story of my life,
and I'm trying to tell the truth,
and everybody that reads any of it,
they think, you know, that in the end,
I've committed a thousand murders
because it takes a long time to come
around and face oneself.
Right now, did you know I saw the light?
Okay, now I want you to say yes and I want to, Haddie out there,
I want to hear you sing too,
Mr., both of you.
Okay, John, I wonder,
so ain't this, you start it off.
[C]Hey. Hey. Hey. [G]Hey. Hey. Hey. ain't no leader,
but I'm gonna lead you this
time. sing it. we go.

[Verse 2]
I saw the [G]light, I saw the light
[C]No

[Verse 4]
more darkness, no more night
[G]Now sing.
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow inside

[Verse 5]
Praise the [G]Lord, [D]I saw the [G]light

[Verse 6]
I wondered so aimless,
life filled with sin.
Clap!
[C]I wouldn't let my dear Savior in.
[G]Then Jesus came like
a stranger in the night.
Praise the Lord, [D]I saw the [G]light.
Now get to[C]gether!
[G]I saw the light, I saw the light
No [C]more darkness, no more night
[G]Now I'm so happy, no sorrow inside
Praise the Lord, I [D]saw [G]the light
Now you boys both play,
now let's clap
Alright, let's get into my
clothes to [C]stick it to[G][D][G]
Just like a blind man, wandered alone
[C]Where is the care that
I claim for my [G]own?
Been like a blind man,
the cloth came back inside
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
I saw the light, I saw the light
[C]No more darkness, no more night
[G]Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, [D]my soul,
not [G]mine[C][G]
[D][G]
Now I was a fool to wander and stray
[C]Strayed in the cane and
narrowed the [G]way
Now I have traded the
wrong for the right
Raised the mark, [D]I saw [C]the [G]light
I saw the light, I saw the light
No [C]more darkness, no more [G]night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, [D]I saw the [G]light
I saw the light, I saw the light.
[C]No more darkness, no more night.
[G]Now I'm so happy, no sorrow inside.
Alright, now let's get together.
Come up on that now.
the Lord, [D]I saw the l[G]ight.[C]
[G]Right on me.
