Bread And Water

G   C G  G  C G


[Verse 1]
G                     C              G
One night he wandered into that old mission
                    D            G
The one out on the poor side of town
                  C              G
He really had no interest in salvation
                         D              G
Just a place to lay his drunk ole body down

               C          G
He said, Ma’am I sure am hungry
                    D           G
And I don’t have a penny to my name
                     C                    G
Lord knows I hadn’t worked in a month of Sundays
                 D              G
I’m dirty, dead broke and so ashamed


[Chorus 1]
        C
I need bread and water, ma’am that’s all I need
G
Bread and water, and a place to rest my feet
  Am                  G              C
I ain’t too proud to get down on my knees
                          G
If the bread and water’s free


[Verse 2]
                         C               G
She said, you’re always welcome at this table
                        D                    G
Said, brother you look like you could use a friend
                        C                 G
And there’s no need to pay if you’re not able
                  D             G
Cause even Jesus was a homeless Man

                        C                G
Well she opened up the Word and started reading
                          D            G
About the Savior and the woman at the well
                         C                      G
Said it ain’t for me to judge this life you’re leading
                             D                   G
There’s only two things can save your soul from hell


[Chorus 1]
C
It’s bread and water, man that’s all you need
G
Bread and water, and a place to rest your feet
       Am7                 G                C
If you ain’t too proud to get down on your knees
                       G
The bread and water’s free


[Verse 3]
                   C             G
When he bowed his head he kinda choked up
                  D                  G     C
They spoke every word of Our Lord’s Prayer
G                C                  G
  He closed his eyes and never woke up
                      D             G
He’ll find bread and water waiting there

[Chorus 2]
C
Bread and water, man that’s all you need
G
Bread and water, and a place to rest your feet
C
Bread and water, man that’s all you need
G
Bread and water, brother just believe

   Am                      G                C
If you ain’t too proud to get down on your knees
                       G  G
The bread and water’s free
G                      C  G
Bread and water’s free
