The Perry's - It carried him

It ^Claid upon the das^Ghboard, of ^Amhis old pickup truck. Or ^Fstuffed down in the pocket, of his ^Gshort sleeve button up. I've ^Emseen it in his toolbox, be^Amside the tractor seat. Whe^Frever he was working, he ^Gkept it within ^Creach.

^GIt was he trusted comp^Canion,^G it was a rock and his best ^Cfriend.^G It ^Amwas a truth, it ^Gwas a light, ^Fwhen the path grew dim, and he ^Ccarried it be^Gcause it carried him.^{C Gm F}

It ^Ccarried him in ^Gstrength, when ^Amhe was tired and down. It ^Fcarried him with hope, when ^Ghope could not be found. And ^Em7when his love lay helpless, and he ^Amknew it was goodbye; it ^Fpromised him eternity and ^Gpeace for when ^Che cried.

^GIt was he trusted comp^Canion,^G it was a rock and his best ^Cfriend.^G It ^Amwas a truth, it ^Gwas a light, ^Fwhen the path grew dim, and he ^Ccarried it ^Gbecause it carried h^Cim.

^AmHe read it every day, took it ^Feverywhere he went. And he ^Dmbeamed when he held that ^Cweathered, worn out ^Ftestamant.

^GIt was he trusted ^Ccompanion,^G it was a rock and his best ^Cfriend.^G It ^Amwas a truth, it ^Gwas a light, ^Fwhen the path grew dim, and he ^Ccarried it be^Gcause it carried h^Cim. ^{Gm7 F C Gm F C}
