BOOK OF LIFE

(Tom Coomes-Chuck Girard)

            Chorus
           G 
I keep my thumb between the pages
         C           G
And my heart in the book
D7                         G
Talkin' 'bout the Book of Life
        G     
When my life gets too confusin'
         C
Well, I stop and take a second look
D7                                G
Take another look in the Book of Life

E                                   A
At times my heart gets down right faithless
E                                   A
And I sink into the quicksand of my sin
 D                               G
That's when the Word of God can purge my sinner's heart
     C                  F               D               D7
And free me from those old desires that pop up now and then

            Chorus
E                                   A
The first time that I read it I was floatin'
E                                   A
The second time I felt the change begin
    D                                   G
The third time thru the truth began to hit me
     C              F              D       D7
The Word of God is washin' out my brain, amen

            Chorus

E                          A
I used to worry 'bout my waistline
E                          A
I found it awful hard to grin
D     				    G
But now my soul delights in feedin' on the Word
C              F                       D        D7 (Amen)
Can't stuff enought of them spiritual calories in

           G             
I keep my thumb between the pages
         C           G
And my heart in the book
D7                         G
Talkin' 'bout the Book of Life
        G     
When my life gets too confusin'
         C
Well, I stop and take a second look
D7                                G
Take another look in the Book of Life
            D7                                  G
Why don't we take another look in the Book of Life
         D7
Come on let's take another look in the book

(In the book)

In the book

(In the book)
                 G
In the Book of Life
