Forgiveness Testo

My daddy preached to meeveryday for years
the day that he died
I swallowed my tears
With a tip of the bottle
and a wish you were here
I'd trade forgiveness for a beer
I sat with my grandma in her rockin chair
the sun felt so warm through her light blue hair
From the pages of her bible
and a fresh breath of air
I'd trade forgiveness for a beer
I know my beliefes they aint right
it's the only way I can
make it through the night
i pray the lord to keep me asleep
so I can dream of the promise land
Cause my dreams are the only time I can
Sleep never makes it round here
We say amen
and gather at the bar
Amazing Grace loud and clear
i know what he'd say
if he were here
but I'd trade forgiveness for a beer
but I'd trade forgiveness for a beer
