The Ten Commandments The Statler Brothers
[Intro]
[C] [C]
[Verse 1]
[C]Moses led God's children out to find the promised land
And on the way he'd stop each day and look to Heaven and
Asked [F]God for help as he could not withstand the task al[F7]one
And t[C]hen one day he looked away and thereby lay a stone
[Verse 2]
God [G]said write upon this stone th[G7]ese words I say to you
And [F]if you all obey my rules I'll see you safely through
God [G7]opened Heaven's door and then He guided Moses' han[D]d
And [F]said go and tell my child[D]ren these are my [G7]commands
[Cborus]
Go and [C]climb that mountain Moses climb that mountain now and pray
[C]Climb that mountain now and tell us what our Lord has had to say
[Verse 3]
[C] Thou shalt have no Gods before me is my great command
[C]And thou shalt not make any graven image by thy hand
Thou [F]shalt not take My name in vain if thou would guiltless be
R[C]emember thou to keep the Sabbath day alone for me
[G7]Honor thy father [G]and thy mother and thou shalt not kill
Thou s[F7]halt not commit adultery and thou shalt not steal
L[G7]ove thy neighbor as thyself and show thy neighbor peace
C[F7]ovet not thou neighbor's house [G7]nor anyt[G]hing that's [G7]his
[Cborus]
Go and [C]climb that mountain Moses climb that mountain now and pray
Climb [C]that mountain now and tell us what our Lord has had to say[D]
[Verse 4]
[D]Moses showed these words of God to all the children then
[D]They pulled up stakes and headed out to find the promised land
That [G]Moses had described to them and told of comforts there
The [D]children of oppression thought they'd not find anywhere
But [A7]they were soon to part from him and push alone awhile
For [G]it was never meant for him to walk that final mile
The chi[A7]ldren cried if we must go on Moses without you
[D]Then talk to God just one more time and [G7]tell us what to do
[Cborus]
Go and [D]climb that mountain Moses climb that mountain now and pray
Climb [D]that mountain now and tell us what our Lord has had to say
[Cborus]
Go and [D]climb that mountain Moses climb that mountain now and pray
Climb t[D]hat mountain now and tell us what our Lord has had to say
