John Anderson - "Solid Ground"

D Em
A good Christian raising, a family foundation

G D
Mom & Dad who taught us right from wrong

D Em
Even through the hard times we stayed close together

G D
That's the Solid Ground that made me strong

Bm G
But there were places that I had to go and things I had to find

Bm G
I was looking for the answers to the questions in my mind

Em G D
But all of the answers would be found on Solid Ground

D Em
For awhile I wandered aimlessly & couldn't see the way

G D
I had to find out on my own

D Em
That the things that I was looking for were things I left behind

G D
Sometimes you never miss it till it's gone

Bm G
Then a beacon from the lighthouse led me safely to the shore

Bm G
And I didn't have to worry or be troubled anymore

Em G D
I was finally coming back around to Solid Ground

D Em
The truths I learned when I was young have stood the test of time

G D
All the rest is slowly washed away

D Em
I try to teach my children the best way I know how

G D
And hope that they're on Solid Ground to stay

Bm G
And the lessons I was taught keep on ringing in my ears

Bm G
Simple words of wisdom I'll remember through the years

Em G D
Yes now my feet are planted sound on Solid Ground

Em G D
Yes now my feet are finally planted sound on Solid Ground
