Garth Brooks - Where the cross dont burn

^DWe were white ^Aand they were black And our^Bm lives, they were div^Aided by the rail^Groad tracks ^DBut We'd meet up every mornin' at that ^Ariverbend That's where I ^Bmlearned about Je^Asus from my o^Gnly black friend And Some^Emtimes we'd sit and stare up at the ^Asky And I could^Em see the hope of heaven in his ^Aeyes [Chorus] ^GIn the land where the cotton grows ^F#mIn a time when change came slow ^GJust beyond^F#m the ^Empoint of no ^Creturn ^{A G}A white boy and a black old man ^F#mOn the tracks walking hand in hand ^GIt's where ^F#mI come to^Em understand and l^Cearn^A

^D[Vers^Ge 2] ^{D G} He'd Tell me ^DMoney doens't matter, nor the ^Acolor of your skin You can ^Bmstumble, even ^Afall and still ^Gget up again ^D'Cause it ain't about the deeds, ^Agood or bad that we have done All we h^Bmave to do is ^Alove to be ^Gdesciples of the Son ^D/F# And we'd ^Emjoin hands and bow our heads to ^Apray And he ^Emtold me that he loved me every ^Aday

^GIn the land where the cotton grows ^F#mIn a time when change came slow ^GJust beyond^F#m the ^Empoint of no ^Creturn ^{A G}A white boy and a black old man ^F#mOn the tracks walking hand in hand ^GIt's where ^F#mI come to^Em understand and l^Cearn^A

Yeah, we're all ^Dgathered here this mornin' at this^A riverbend To ^Bmsay our last good^Abyes to my^G very best friend ^EmAs his ashes slowly float ^Aaway We know it's ^Emonly 'til we meet again som^Aeday

^GIn the land where the cotton grows ^F#mIn a time when change came slow ^GJust beyond^F#m the ^Empoint of no ^Creturn ^{A G}A white boy and a black old man ^F#mOn the tracks walking hand in hand ^GIt's where ^F#mI come to^Em understand and l^Cearn^A
