Family Bible chords by Ernest Tubb

G                C            G
There's a family Bible on the table

Em                 A7      D7
Its pages torn and hard to read

        G      C            G
But the family Bible on the table

     C          G      D7   G
Will ever be my key to memo-ries


              C                 G
At the end of day when work was over

 Em                  A7       D7
And when the evening meal was done

          G       C                  G
Dad would read to us from the family Bible

         C              G         D7     G
And we'd count our many blessings one by one


  C          F                 C
I can see us sitting round the table

                                     G
When from the family Bible dad would read

                  C             G
And I can hear my mother softly singing

             C       G    D7        G
Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me


                  C               G
This old world of ours is full of trouble

Em                      A7          D7
But this old world would also better be

        G         C             G
If we'd find more Bibles on the tables

                    C       G    D7        G
And mothers singing rock of ages cleft for me


  C          F                 C
I can see us sitting round the table

                                     G
When from the family Bible dad would read

                  C             G
And I can hear my mother softly singing

             C       G    D7        G
Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me
