Papa Was A Good Man Ukulele tab

	  
C                             G7 
It rained all the way to Cincinnati 
                                C 
With our mattress on top of the car 
                                   G7 
Us kids were eatin' crackers and baloney 
                                                 C 
And papa kept on drivin' never stopped once at a bar 

                                    G7 
And then mama started talkin' about Jesus 
                                    C 
And how our lives could be from now on 
                                   G7 
While papa bought a used tire in Columbus 
                                             C    C7 
Mama rocked the baby till all her tears were gone 

              F                      C 
She said your papa is a good man and don't you kids forget it 
    F                                  D7                  G7 
The whiskey's tryin' to ruin him but I know the Lord won't let it 
F                              C               Am 
Then we sang Amazing Grace and Bringing In The Sheaves 
        C    F       C    G7        C  F C G7 C 
Rock of Ages Rock of Ages cleft for me 

                G7 
I remember when Papa finally gave up drinking 

I think Mama was the only one on earth that really taught she could 
C 
I remember a lot of times we?ve pack everything we owned 
                                         G7  
Into some old car and we?d start out for some new town 

And trough it all Mama?s faith was the one thing 
                                     C    C7 
Was strong enough to finally do some good 

              F                      C 
She said your papa is a good man and don't you kids forget it 
    F                                  D7                  G7 
The whiskey's tryin' to ruin him but I know the Lord won't let it 
F                              C               Am 
Then we sang Amazing Grace and Bringing In The Sheaves 
        C    F       C    G7        C  F C 
Rock of Ages Rock of Ages cleft for me
