Stay With Us
Words and Music by Mavis Staples
Well (A)Lord you've done everything you've said
Every-(D)-thing that you said you would (A)do
You gave us food to eat and our health and strength too
But we're (D)livin' in such a mean ol' world
Now (A)misery and sadness are everywhere
But some-(D)-times it seems so hard to bear
CHORUS:
Stay (A)with us, don't leave us
Don't leave us, I know we'll make it
(G)I know we'll (A)make it
Now everything seems to be going wrong
But Lord I know you're gonna fix it before too long
These are the times oh Lord of war and hate
But oh you said that you'd surly make a way
CHORUS
(A)Well just as long as you are by my side
(D)Oh just as long as you will be my guide
(A)Gonna keep on trusting upward every round
(G)Cause ain't nobody gonna (D)turn me around
CHORUS x 3
