Key: GG | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

Verse 1

G
It was a wide spot out in the country
     C                      G
Away from the lights of the city
G
Where an old time preacher pitched a raged old tent
       F             C             D
Looked like it was a hundred years old
   G
He started out preaching to none 
           C                                   G
Pretty soon the crowd started gathering
G                                                     D                G      D G
And he preached the gospel at the corner of heartbreak ridge and new hope road
G
I turned into a wild man
          C               G
Some people said I'd gone crazy
G
But all too soon came the harvest 
            F                   C          D
Of the wild seeds that I had sown
G
I stumbled into the meeting 
          C                                         G
I was looking like death warmed over
G                                                  D                G      D G
Then I heard the gospel at the corner of heartbreak ridge and new hope road

Chorus 1
               C                F        C 
When they sang come ye sinners, lost and hopeless
G                   F E   D 
Lord, I was hopeless heaven knows
G
It was something got a hold of me
                         C
Something got a hold halelluiah
G                                                  D                G      D G
When I heard the gospel at the corner of heartbreak ridge and new hope road

Verse 2
G
It's still a wide spot out in the country 
C                           G
Away from the lights of the city
G
I pitched that old tent that he gave me 
F                  C     D
The day he died and went home
G
Some times I start preaching to none 
C                            G
Pretty soon the crowd starts gathering
G                                                  D                G     D G
And I preach the gospel at the corner of heartbreak ridge and new hope road

Chorus 2

And we sang come ye sinners, lost and hopeless
G                   F,E   D
Lord, I was hopeless heaven knows
G
It was something got a hold of me
                                          C
Something got a hold halelluiah
G                                                  D                G      D G
