I Was There Capo 4
[Intro]
Em D C9
[Verse 1]
G C9
I was there that night in Bethlehem
Em D C9
And when Neil and the boys came to the moon in that tin can
G D C9
At Gettysburg, Omaha beach, in Vietnam
Em D C9
I heard every soldier's cry and every mama's prayer
G C9
I was there
[Verse 2]
G C9
I was there when you took your first breath
Em D C9
And when you lit that stolen Lucky Strike and like to choke to death
G
When you were waist deep in Carter's Creek
C9 Em D C9 D
And preacher John dunked you down in the water and raised you up for air
G
I was there
[Chorus]
C9 D
I'm always around, I was then and I am now
G G/B C9
And I'll be here when tomorrow comes
Em
When a road comes to an end
D
I'm where you start again
C9 Em C9
I'm never farther than a word away
D
You've always got a friend
[Bridge]
G C9
When your grandma passed, I was in that house
Em D C9 D
And when your grandpa ran down the street to go to show her around
G C9 Em C9 D C9
I was there
[Chorus]
C9 D
I'm always around, I was then and I am now
G G/B C9
And I'll be here when tomorrow comes
Em
When a road comes to an end
D
I'm where you start again
C9 Em C9
I'm never farther than a word away
D
You've always got a friend
[Verse 3]
G C9
I was there last night on highway 9
Em D C9
When you answered the phone and ran right through that stop sign
G C9
I was in the cab, of that bigger rig, in that trucker's ear
Em D C9
Made him swerve to the right and miss you by a hair
G
I was there
[Tag]
Em D C9
If you're feeling alone look up I'm the One who answers prayers
Em D C9
And I'm always there
