A5                                   C5              
She was a girl living in the city clinging to old religion 

G5                        A5              G5
Praying for electricity to keep it warm for the little ones 

A5                       C5
Nobody made her wise to the things a girl might find 

       G5                        A5          G5
In a belly of a hungry man who don't care nothing about his 



               (Chorus)

A5                              C5
Bloodline, she got lost in the bloodline 

                   F5
Heavy cost of a bloodline 

                   C5                 G5
She goes on she cries at night and keeps alive his

A5                                 C5
Bloodline, so much riding on a bloodline 

                            F5
Why is he hiding from the bloodline

                  C5                  G5                 A5     C5 G5 A5 G5
It aint right she cries at night and keeps alive his bloodline 





A5                               C5
She heard heaven is invite only reserved for Christian soldiers 

G5                                  A5                G5
Not unwed girls living in the city asking for change from strangers

A5                              C5               
But father said Jesus loves her even though she never married 

G5                                      A5         G5          
God loves her more than the Christians do, she's part of his holy 



              (Chorus)

A5                               C5
Bloodline, she got saved in the bloodline 

                            F5
The price he paid for the bloodline 

                      C5                  G5
Changed her life she cries at night and keeps alive his 

 A5                             C5
Bloodline, she believes in his bloodline 

                            F5
Lives and breathes by the bloodline 

                        C5                  G5               A5
With all her might she cries at night and keeps alive his bloodline 

            C5       G5     A5  G5
Ohhhhhhhhhh oooooooooooo 





A5                                  C5
I know I should have never left her to shoulder all the burden 

G5                             A5     G5
She probably won't forgive me god might not either 

A5              C5
I made a cross and lay it on her back 

G5                            A5           G5
But I never broke her spirit and she owes that to her 



                 (Chorus)

A5                                    C5
Bloodline, she stayed strong for the bloodline 

                    F5
I did wrong by the bloodline 

                     C5                  G5
But she went on she cried at night and kept alive the 

A5                            C5
Bloodline, sacrifice for the bloodline 

                        F5
Paid the price for the bloodline 

                      C5                  G5              A5
For all her life she cried at night and kept alive the bloodline 

        C5           G5
Ooohhoohhoohhhhhoooo

      A5                 G5               A5      
she cried at night and kept alive her bloodline

      C5    G5   A5   G5   A5
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
