I Was There Josh Turner
Verse 1:
[D]I was there t[A]hat night in B[Bm]ethlehem
And when [G]Neil and the boys came to the moon in that t[A]in can
At [D]Gettysburg, [A]Omaha beach, in [Bm]Vietnam
I heard e[G]very soldier's cry and m[A]om's prayer
I was th[D]ere[GD]
[D]I was there w[A]hen you took your first[Bm] breath
And when you [G]lit that stolen Lucky Strike and like the c[A]hoke to death
[D]When you were [A]waist deep in Carter's [Bm]Creek
And preacher J[G]ohn dunked you down in the water and raised you [A]up for air
I was t[D]here
Chorus:
[Bm]I'm always around
I was [A]then and I am now
And [D]I'll be here when tomorrow [G]comes
When a [Bm]road comes to an end
I'm [A]where you start again
I'm [D]never farther than a word [G]away
You've a[Bm]lways got a friend[A]
Verse 2:
When your [D]grandma [A]passed, I was in that h[Bm]ouse
And when your g[G]randpa ran down the street to go to show [A]her around
I was the[D]re[D] [A] [A] [G] [G] [A]
Chorus:
[Bm]I'm always around
I was [A]then and I am now
And [D]I'll be here when tomorrow [G]comes
When a [Bm]road comes to an end
I'm [A]where you start again
I'm [D]never farther than a word [G]away
You've a[Bm]lways got a friend[A]
Verse 3:
[D]I was there [A]last night on hig[Bm]hway 9
When you ans[G]wered the phone and ran right through that s[A]top sign
I was i[D]n the cab, in that big[A]ger rig, in that t[Bm]rucker's ear
They then s[G]werve to the right and miss you [A]by a hair
I was th[D]ere
Tag:
If you're fe[Bm]eling alone look [A]up on the One who ans[G]wers prayers[A]
And I'm always t[D]here[A] [G] [A] [D]
