[Instrumental Intro | slow weeping guitar | sparse] [Verse 1 | deep | preacher like vocal] Found it on the shelf behind the whiskey glass Grandmama's handwriting fading out fast Pages thin as promises I couldn't keep Words I should've lived by lying there asleep [Chorus | soulful | mournful] Dust on the Bible, dust on my soul Been a long time since I let the good word hold Dust on the Bible, Lord I know I strayed so far from everything you showed [Verse 2 | deep | sorrowful] Tried to fill that empty with everything wrong Figured I could make it if I stayed real strong But strong ain't nothing when you're strong alone And every road I ran just led me further from home [Guitar Solo | weeping | slow sustained bends] [Chorus | soulful | mournful] Dust on the Bible, dust on my soul Been a long time since I let the good word hold Dust on the Bible, Lord I know I strayed so far from everything you showed [Bridge | spoken word | bare guitar beneath] I ain't asking for much Lord Just a little light Just enough to find my way Back to what was right [Chorus | full | redemptive] Dust on the Bible, dust on my soul Been a long time since I let the good word hold Dust on the Bible, Lord I know I strayed so far from everything you showed [Outro | fading | guitar and silence] Dust on the Bible… Lord bring me home…
