I'm trying to find chords/tabs for I was there when it happened... I heard it on walk the line... the lyrics are


I WAS THERE WHEN IT HAPPENED
Words and music by Jimmie Davis and Fern Jones, ©1954.
As recorded by Johnny Cash.

1. There are some people who say we cannot tell
Whether we are saved or whether all is well.
They say we only can hope and trust that it is so.
Well, I was there when it happened, and so I guess I ought to know.

CHORUS: Yes, I know when Jesus saved me (saved my soul),
The very moment He forgave me (made me whole),
He took away my heavy burdens; Lord, He gave me peace within (peace within).
Satan can't make me doubt it. (I won't doubt it.)
It's real and I'm gonna shout it. (I'm gonna shout it.)
I was there when it happened, and so I guess I ought to know

2. I don't care who tells me salvation is not real.
Though the world may argue, that we cannot feel,
The heavy burden's lifted and the vile sins go.
I was there when it happened, and so I guess I ought to know. CHORUS
