Intro
G Am F C G
[Verso 1]
Am F
I found the Lord in the bed of my old Ford
C G
With a towel wrapped around my head and blood on the doors
Am F
I've been in many bar fights but none quite this bad
C G
My eyes are gettin' heavy and I cannot feel my hands
Am F
Mama always told me that I'd pay for all of my sins
C G
But my sins have been so many that I thought He might forget
Am F
Now and then I've thought to reap what I have sowed
C G G
I guess He's finally come collectin' all the debt I owe
[Refrão]
Am C G Am
I saw a man on a white horse and Hell followed close
F C G Am
There were screams of anguish from a thousand tortured souls
F C G Am
Oh steel my heart, I could not shake His call
Am C G Am Am F C G
The man on the white horse will come for us all
[Verso 2]
Am F
I stood from where I lay and I found that glass of gin
C G
And I poured it on the ground next to the tombstones of my kin
Am F
I know I wasn't meant to be lyin' in any grave
C G G
He turned to me and said "Now's the time to change"
[Refrão]
Am C G Am
I saw a man on a white horse and Hell followed close

The day that I found God left me ready to depart
C G
A world that feels so cold is not the one that I want
Am F
Until the day He calls I'll wait and do my part
C G G
For the night that I found God has put the fear in my heart
[Refrão]
