Ten Rocks
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/shelby_lynne/ten_rocks_crd.html ]
A A7
My old friend buried his mama today
D A
Told me 'bout how he cried bloody tears and prayed
E
As the preacher shouted life to believers
D
The sermon pounded home to redeem us
B7 E A E
That's heavy brother - heavy as ten rocks
A A7
When I heard the ice water waves crashin' on the shore
D A
When that little baby sister said she just can't take it no more
E
When the earth split open and we buried the man
D
The man who dies a dmeon with a two fisted hand
B7 E A E
Well that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
A A7
When the tall green grass drowns underneath the rain
D A
When the memories come and your knees buckle under the pain
E
When the take-back man steals away your soul
D
You're longin' in your pockets and you come up cold
B7 E A E
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
A A7
When sleep won't come and eyes won't close out the light
D A
When you ache for slumber and your eyes won't shut out the light
E
When the compass leads, still lost your way
D
Nothin' left to lose but another day
B7 E A E
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
A A7
When God comes to greet us I'll meet Him at the door
D A
When He comes down to seek us I'll be waitin' at the door
E
When the trial is over gonna go with the Lord
D
And I won't have to worry 'bout my sins no more
B7 E A E
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
B7 E A E A
And that's heavy brother, heavy as ten rocks
