Verse 1

F#5
It was a wide spot out in the country
     B5                      F#5
Away from the lights of the city
F#5
Where an old time preacher pitched a raged old tent
       E5             B5             C#5
Looked like it was a hundred years old
   F#5
He started out preaching to noone 
           B5                                   F#5
Pretty soon the crowd started gathering
F#5                                                     C#5                F#5      C#5 F#5
And he preached the gospel at the corner of heartbreak ridge and newhope road
F#5
I turned into a wild man
          B5               F#5
Some people said I�d gone crazy
F#5
But all too soon came the harvest 
            E5                   B5          C#5
Of the wild seeds that I had sown
F#5
I stumbled into the meeting 
          B5                                         F#5
I was looking like death warmed over
F#5                                                  C#5                F#5      C#5 F#5

F#5                   E5 Eb5   C#5 
Lord, I was hopeless heaven knows
F#5

Something got ahold halelluiah

I pitched that old tent that he gave me 
E5                  B5     C#5
The day he died and went home
