Parker Millsap - Old Time Religion

      [Verse 1]
          Am
He’s got old time religion
 Dm        
Buries his cash in a coffee can
        Am
And he makes his decisions
G5
Down on his knees yeah he’s a full grown man
     Am   
And he had a vision
       Dm
Of a fire it burned up all of the land
           Am
You could call it superstition
          Dm                      G5
You could run just as fast as you can
   Am
He took a beating
       Dm
His father screamed at the top of his lungs
    Am
An Old Testament reading
        G5
If you spare the rod you spoil the son
           Am
He’s got scars for his bleeding
 Dm        
Fear of God fills everyone
         Am
You can listen to Him pleading
 Dm
Pleadings for the holy son (to)

[Chorus]
               Am
Give me that old time religion
             Dm
Give me that old time religion
             Am
Give me that old time religion
      G5
It’s good enough for me

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
      Am
He’s got a King James edition
 Dm
With all of the words of Christ in red
         Am
And he reads the inscription
   Dm
Every night when he goes to bed
    Am
And he goes fishing
     Dm
For sin in men like Jesus said
       Am
Got an old time conviction
          G5
Keeps the bodies in the shed
 Am  
He had a woman
  Dm
Took her to church every Sunday morn
         Am
He said submit to your husband
Dm
Submit to me thus, sayeth the Lord
        Am
Well he never saw it coming
         Dm
When she tried to get away in his ‘34 Ford
        Am                        G5
Now a widower is strumming on a banjo with a missing cord

[Chorus]  
               Am
Give me that old time religion
             Dm
Give me that old time religion
             Am
Give me that old time religion
      G5
It’s good enough for me

[Instrumental break]

[Outro]
               Am
Give me that old time religion
             Dm
Give me that old time religion
             Am
Give me that old time religion
      G5
It’s good enough for me
