Bible Verses chords by Blake Shelton

Tuning: Half-Step Down (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)

🎸 Intro:
E


🎸 Verse 1:
        E
I ain't ever worn a halo

Don't suppose I ever will

As far as saving me goes

It's a battle up a hill
           A
But I keep climbin', tryin', fightin'
           E
Got a King James in the dresser

And I take it out sometimes
    E
But Lord knows, I ain't measured

Up to what's inside
             A
And they say, "But that's okay"

But I keep praying for the day


🎸 Chorus:
           A
That I can open up that good book

And Heaven don't look
                 E
Like it's out of reach
        A
When it feels like those apostles

Are giving me the gospel
                    C#m
And not the third degree
                 B
I just wanted to read
     A
Like Bible verses
            B              E
And not the Biblе versus me


🎸 Verse 2:
       E
I woke up in last night's clothеs

And it's whisky on my lips

If God's looking down, I know

He's really looking down on this
           A
But I have faith that I can change

I keep praying for the day


🎸 Chorus:
           A
That I can open up that good book

And Heaven don't look
                 E
Like it's out of reach
        A
When it feels like those apostles

Are giving me the gospel
                    C#m
And not the third degree
                 B
I just wanted to read
     A
Like Bible verses
            B              (E)
And not the Biblе versus me


🎸 Instrumental:
E  A  B


🎸 Bridge:
         F#m                            A
I'm just tryin' to give myself a little grace
           F#m              E/G#   A
'Til those words and me get on the same page


🎸 Chorus:
          A
And I can open up that good book

And Heaven don't look
                 E
Like it's out of reach
        A
When it feels like those apostles

Are giving me the gospel
                    C#m
And not the third degree
                 B
I just wanted to read
     A
Like Bible verses
            B              E
And not the Biblе versus me
