Church Kids (feat. CAIN)

VERSE:
                          G
We were there at the church when 
the doors were open 
       C 
Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings
      D
Daddy played the guitar and momma sang 
         C                                   D
There’s just something about that name
                G
The preacher man used to close with a prayer
                C
And raise your hand if you need saving
 D                                              
I lost track of how many times 
          C                              D
I bowed my head and closed my eyes

CHORUS:
         C     
We were saved every Sunday, 
G
we were washed by the blood
                    D   
We were raised on amazing grace, 
           Em                                 D
a Bible belt when we acted up 
                 C                                                 
We were so far from perfect, more   
 G
sinner than saint 
                            D                           D#dim
We saw the good the bad along the way
          Em                                          D
But still somehow we found our faith 

That’s who we were, that’s how it was, 
that’s what we did
We were just church kids

INSTRUMENTAL:
G  C  G  C

VERSE 2:
G   
Me and my buddies in that back row 
   C
Learn with the girls and passing notes 
    D
Round that campfire all together 
   C                                 D
Singing friends are friends forever 
G                                           C
Lock-ins on Friday night, VBS in mid-July
      D   
Church bus broke down side of the road 
  C                      D        
Don’t seem that long ago

CHORUS:
         C     
We were saved every Sunday, 
G
we were washed by the blood
                    D   
We were raised on amazing grace, 
           Em                                 D
a Bible belt when we acted up 
                 C                                                 
We were so far from perfect, more   
 G
sinner than saint 
                            D                           D#dim
We saw the good the bad along the way
          Em                                          D
But still somehow we found our faith 

That’s who we were, that’s how it was,

BRIDGE:
                   D 
We were wild and free and too young and dumb
                 C
To see just how fast the time would go
          D
And looking back distract our souls
                C
Those days are gone and now I’m grown, 
   C
raising up my own Church Kids
