[Intro]
G    D  G


[Verse 1]
  G                                     G7
I wandered so aimless, life filled with sin
C                             G
I wouldn't let my dear Savior in
G
Then, Jesus came like a stranger in the night
                 D         G
Praise the Lord, I saw the light


[Chorus]
G                          G7
I saw the light, I saw the light
C                               G
No more in darkness, no more at night
G
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
                 D         G
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
G    D  G


[Verse 2]
G                                  G7
Just like a blind man, I wandered along
C                                   G
Worries and fears, I claimed for my own
G
Then, like the blind man that God gave back his sight
                 D         G
Praise the Lord, I saw the light


[Chorus]
G                          G7
I saw the light, I saw the light
C                               G
No more in darkness, no more at night
G
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
                 D         G
Praise the Lord, I saw the light


[Bridge]
G    G7
C    G
G
     D  G


[Verse 3]
G                          G7
I was a fool to wander and stray
    C                                   G
For straight is the gate and narrow the way
G
Now, I have traded the wrong for the right
G                D         G
Praise the Lord, I saw the light


[Chorus]
G                          G7
I saw the light, I saw the light
C                               G
No more in darkness, no more at night
G
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
                 D         G
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

[Intro]
A    A7    D
A    E7    A


[Verse 1]
  A           E7          A
Tonight, down here in the valley
                  D         A
I'm lonesome and, oh, how I feel
               A7         D
As I sit here alone in my cabin
      A        E7             A
I can see your mansion on the hill


[Interlude]
A    E7    A
     D     A
     A7    D
A    E7    A


[Verse 2]
   A      E7          A
Do you recall when we parted?
             D        A
The story to me you revealed?
                   A7           D
You said you could live without love, dear
        A        E7             A
In your loveless mansion on the hill


[Interlude]
A    A7    D
A    E7    A


[Verse 3]
     A       E7              A
I've waited all through the years, love
              D              A
To give you a heart true and real
                     A7        D
'cause I know you're living in sorrow
        A        E7             A
In your loveless mansion on the hill


[Verse 4]
    A            E7               A
The lights shine bright from your window
                   D          A
The trees stand so silent and still
               A7              D
I know you're alone with your pride, dear
        A        E7             A
In your loveless mansion on the hill

[Intro]
G    D  G


[Verse 1]
        G
Oh, the rain is slowly falling
        C          G
And my heart is so sore
         C                  G
Six more miles and leave my darling
                       D       G
Never on this earth to meet no more


[Chorus]
               C      G
Six more miles to the graveyard
                         D
Six more miles, long and sad
         G         C        G
Six more miles and leave my darling

Leave the best friend I ever had

C       G


[Verse 2]
      G
Oh, I hear the train a-coming
            C            G
Bringing my darling back home
         C            G
Six more miles to the graveyard
                      D    G
And I'll be left here all alone


[Chorus]
               C      G
Six more miles to the graveyard
                         D
Six more miles, long and sad
         G         C        G
Six more miles and leave my darling

Six more miles to the graveyard
                         D
Six more miles, long and sad
         G         C        G
Six more miles and leave my darling
               C             G
Leave the best friend I ever had

4.) "Wedding Bells"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Intro]
B7
E    B7


[Verse 1]
   E            B7             E
I have the invitation that you sent me
                 B7                  E    E7
You wanted me to see you change your name
    A                            E
I couldn't stand to see you wed another
     B7                                E    E7
But dear, I hope you're happy just the same


[Chorus]
A                                E
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
     B7                                E  E7
That should be ringing now for you and me
A                                       E
Down the aisle with someone else you're walking
      B7                                E
Those wedding bells will never ring for me


[Verse 2]
                   B7              E
I planned a little cottage in the valley
                B7             E    E7
I even bought a little band of gold
    A                                    E
I thought, someday, I'd place it on your finger
     B7                              E    E7
But now the future looks so dark and cold


[Chorus]
A                                E
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
   B7                                 E    E7
I hear the children laughing now with glee
    A                             E
At home, alone, I hang my head in sorrow
     B7                               E
For wedding bells will never ring for me


[Verse 3]
               B7             E
I fancy that I see a bunch of roses
                  B7                  E    E7
A blossom from an orange tree in your hair
A                                 E
While the organ plays "I Love You Truly"
       B7                       E     E7
Please let me pretend that I am there


[Chorus]
A                                E
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
B7                            E    E7
Ever since the day you set me free
  A                                E
I knew someday that you would wed another
    B7                                   E
But wedding bells will never ring for me

5.) "Lost Highway"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Intro]
D      A7  D


[Verse 1]
N.C.            D         G        D
I'm a rolling stone, all alone and lost
                                    A7
For a life of sin, I have paid the cost
            G                  D
When I pass by, all the people say
                         A7       D
"Just another guy on the lost highway"


[Verse 2]
                D          G       D
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
                                     A7
And a woman's lies makes a life like mine
               G            D
For the day we met, I went astray
                            A7       D
I started rolling down that lost highway


[Bridge]
D      G  D
          A7
G         D
       A7 D


[Verse 3]
              D          G       D
I was just a lad, nearly twenty-two
                                      A7
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you
            G                  D
And now I'm lost, too late to pray
                                A7       D
Lord, I've paid the cost on the lost highway


[Verse 4]
                   D        G         D
Now, boys, don't start your rambling around
                                      A7
On this road of sin or you're sorrow-bound
           G                        D
Take my advice or you'll curse the day
                              A7       D
You started rolling down that lost highway


[Outro]
D      A7 D

6.) "I've Just Told Mama Goodbye"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Intro]
D   A7   G   D


[Verse 1]
     D       A7       D
Each year on Mother's day
            G       D
The rose I wore was red
      G               D
But today, I'm saying my first prayer
                A7        D
Mama's lying on her dying bed


[Chorus]
               A7        D
I've just told Mama goodbye
                 G         D
Mother's day has turned to night
         G                   D
Like the flowers in May, she withered away
                   A7      D
And my red rose is turning white


[Verse 2]
            A7      D
This is the dreaded hour
             G       D
We all must face someday
            G           D
Yet there's consolation in my heart
                      A7          D
She will bloom in the Master's bouquet


[Chorus]
               A7        D
I've just told Mama goodbye
                 G         D
Mother's day has turned to night
         G                   D
Like the flowers in May, she withered away
                   A7      D
And my red rose is turning white


[Verse 4]
             A7      D
Her time has come to go
                    G     D
And there's nothing I can do
     G                 D
Only hold her hand and say goodbye
                    A7          D
Mama's day with her children is through


[Chorus]
               A7        D
I've just told Mama goodbye
            G        D
And knelt beside her bed
   G                   D
I heard her say, "I'll meet you someday
                      A7       D
Where the white roses turn to red"

7.) "Wealth Won't Save Your Soul"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Intro]
A   D  A
    E7 A


[Verse 1]
      A                D             A
As we journey along on life's wicked road
                                 E7
So selfish are we for silver and gold
        A                          D            A
You can treasure your wealth, your diamonds and gold
                                  E7           A
But my friend, it won't save your poor, wicked soul


[Verse 2]
             A              D          A
For when God calls from His home up on high
                                         E7
To your earthly wealth, you must say goodbye
          A                        D                A
Then it's useless to you if you've strayed from the fold
                                  E7           A
For my friend, it won't save your poor, wicked soul


[Interlude]
A   D  A
       E7
A   D  A
    E7 A


[Verse 3]
                  A           D              A
The rich man like all will be judged at that time
                                     E7
But all of his wealth will be left behind
       A                       D              A
For no matter how much earthly wealth you get hold
                              E7           A
My friend, it won't save your poor, wicked soul
                              E7           A
My friend, it won't save your poor, wicked soul

8.) "A House Without Love"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Intro]
G7    C


[Verse 1]
    C                            G7
For years, we both have lived on pride, dear
                          C
And we agree that love is gone
                        G7
Why, oh, why do we keep trying?
                               C
A house without love is not a home


[Chorus]
     F                          C
The love light in your eyes has faded
                           G7
And I'm contented just to roam
      C                          G7
We've slaved to gain a worthless treasure
                               C
A house without love is not a home


[Bridge]
C    G7

[Verse 3]
                              G7
No matter where our footsteps wander
                          C
I know we'll both be all alone
                           G7
With the pride that came between us
                               C
A house without love is not a home


[Verse 4]
     F                         C
The simple things have gone forever
                             G7
We wanted wealth to call our own
    C                              G7
And now, we've reached the hour of parting
                               C
A house without love is not a home
