The Book You Never Read Chords & Lyrics - Tracy Lawrence

[INTRO]
(D) | (A) | (D) | (D) ---

When you were lost and needed [D]help, I hoped that you would turn [A]to me
And when you couldn't help your- [Em]self, I watched you drown that [Bm]misery [A]
I've seen the damage that [D]you've done, every teardrop and [A]misstep
You know I could've saved you [Em]some, [G]I'm the book you [D]never read

[CHORUS]
[Bm]Your grandaddy [G]carried me in the [D]World War II
Your [A]grandma swears that [Bm]I'm the truth
Your [G]parent's hands were [D]on me when they [A]wed
I'm like a [Bm]member of the [G]family, three [D]generations have [A]handed me down
[Em]I'm in the drawer by [F#m]your bed, [G]I'm the book you [D]never read

I can't take that first step [D]for you, but when you take that step [A]you'll find
You are the key and I'm the [Em]door to, [G]forgiveness and some peace [D]of mind...you know

[CHORUS]
[Bm]Your grandaddy [G]carried me in the [D]World War II
Your [A]grandma swears that [Bm]I'm the truth
Your [G]parent's hands were [D]on me when they [A]wed
I'm like a [Bm]member of the [G]family, three [D]generations have [A]handed me down
[Em]And despite all [F#m]they've said, [G]still the book you never [D]read --

(G) | (Bm) (F#m) | (G) | (D)　| (D)

So when the world treats you un- [D]kindly, and your heart's heavy with [A]regret
That's when I wish that you would [Em]find me, [F#m]I'm [G]the book you never read

[CHORUS]
[Bm]Your grandaddy [G]carried me in the [D]World War II
Your [A]grandma swears that [Bm]I'm the truth
Your [G]parent's hands were [D]on me when they [A]wed
I'm like a [Bm]member of the [G]family, three [D]generations have [A]handed me down
[Em]I'm in the drawer by [F#m]your bed, [G]still the book you never [D]read
