The Gospel According To Luke
Recorded by Skip Ewing
Written by Skip Ewing and Don Sampson

C                                G7         C
He was an old hand at living and making his way
    Am              G7             F        G7
He smelled like old whiskey and he needed a shave
    Am          G7        F
His home was an alley off 8th Avenue
   C                      G7      F
If you had a minute or an hour or two
     C                   G7           C
He'd tell you the Gospel according to Luke

                            G7          C
Luke carried his Bible in a crown royal bag
   Am            G7           F         G7
He wiped off his brow with an old dirty rag
     Am       G7           F
He'd tell you straight out just the way he believed
      C                    G7          F
Faith in the good Lord was all that ya need
       C                  G7                C
I remember the morning he first preached to me
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/skip_ewing/the_gospel_according_to_luke_crd.html ]
        Am           G7         F        C
He said give to your brother if he is in need
Am       G7             F           G7
Offer up thanks for the gifts you receive
        Am          G7             F
There's treasure in heaven for the generous few
C                   G7           C
That was the gospel according to Luke

                             G7           C
So I bought him breakfast at the Daylight Cafe
   Am        G7        F          G7
Biscuits and gravy hot coffee and eggs
       Am         G7            F
He was hungry and ragged hadn't eaten in days
    C                       G7          F
But I was the one there who felt out of place
        C                          G7            C
When he folded his hands bowed his head and said grace

                     G7        C
A week ago Wednesday I saw him again
    Am          G7         F          G7
Downtown at the mission surrounded by friends
        Am          G7          F
Handing out all the change he'd collected that week
       C                          G7            F
Saying you boys might need this a lot more than me
      C                    G7           C
I try hard to practice the words that I preach

Repeat #3

                                 G7         C
He was an old hand at living and making his way
   Am               G7             F        G7
He smelled like old whiskey and he needed a shave
    Am          G7        F
His home was an alley off 8th Avenue
   C                   G7         F
If you had a minute or an hour or two
     C                   G7           C
He'd tell you the Gospel according to Luke
