Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Down a dangerous [D]road,
I have [G]come to where I'm stand[D]ing
With a heavy heart,
and my hat clutched in my [A]hand
Such a foolish [D]fool,
God ain't [G]known no greater sin[D]ner
I have [G]come in search of Je[D]sus,
hoping [A]he will understand
[D]

[Verse 2]
I had a woman once,
she was [G]kind and she was [D]gentle
Had a child by me,
who grew up to be [A]a man
I had a steady [D]job,
til I [G]started into [D]drinking
And I [G]started making mu[D]sic that
went [A]with the devil's band
[D]

[Verse 3]
Oh the years flew [G]by like a
mighty rush of [D]eagles
My dreams and [G]plans were all
scattered in the [A]wind
It's a lonesome [D]life,
when you [G]lose the ones you [D]live for
If I [G]make my peace with Je[D]sus
will they [A]take me back again
[D]

[Verse 4]
If I give my [G]soul,
will he cleanse these clothes I'm [D]wearin'
If I give my [G]soul,
will he put new boots on my [A]feet
If I bow my [D]head and beg
[G]God for his forgive[D]ness
Will he [G]breathe new breath in[D]side
me and give [A]back my dignity
[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]If I give my soul,
will he stop my hands from shak[D]ing
If I give my [G]soul, will my son love me [A]again
If I give my [D]soul,
and she [G]knows I really [D]mean it
If I [G]give my soul to Je[D]sus will
she [A]take me back again

[Verse 6]
[D]bis.[G][D]
[A][D][G][D][G]
[D][A][D]
If I give my [G]soul,
will he cleanse these clothes I'm [D]wearin'
If I give my [G]soul,
will he put new boots on my [A]feet
If I bow [D]my [G]head and [D]beg God
for his [G]forgiveness
Will he [D]breathe new breath [A]inside me and

[Interlude 1]
give back my dignity
[D][G][D]
[A][D][G][D]

[Verse 7]
If I [G]give my soul to Je[D]sus will
she [A]take me back again
