Chord/Tab song: The Old Account

Well it was a ti[C]me on earth when in the books of heaven

An [F]old account was [C]standing for [D7]sins yet unf[G7]orgiven

My [C]name was at the top and many things below[C7]

But I [F]went unto the [C]keeper and [G7]settled it long [C]ago


Long [G7]ago (down on my knees) long [C]ago (I settled it all)

Yes the old account was settled long [G7]ago (hallelujah)

And the [C]record's clear today cause he [F]washed my sins [C]away

And the old account was [G7]settled long [C]ago


Well the old account was large and growing every day

And [F]I was always [C]sinning and I [D7]never tried to [G7]pray

But [C]when I looked ahead and saw such pain and woe[C7]

Well I [F]went unto the [C]keeper and [G7]settled it long [C]ago


Long [G7]ago (down on my knees) long [C]ago (I settled it all)

Yes the old account was settled long [G7]ago (hallelujah)

And the [C]record's clear today cause he [F]washed my sins [C]away

And the old account was [G7]settled long [C]ago


Now sinner seek the Lord repent of all your sins

Cause [F]this he has commanded [D7]if you would enter [G7]in

And [C]then if you should live a hundred years below[C7]

Well you [F]know you got it [C]settled cause you [G7]settled it long [C]ago


Long [G7]ago (down on my knees) long [C]ago (I settled it all)

Yes the old account was settled long [G7]ago (hallelujah)

And the [C]record's clear today cause he [F]washed my sins [C]away

And the old account was [G7]settled long [C]ago
