The Good Book Lyrics Cindy Miller, BMI © January 5, 2007 VERSE Tracing letters with his finger He slowly turns the page All the while he sits and wonders Why he bothers every day He heard this book could change a life Yet he remains the same He wakes, he sleeps, he reads alone And there’s no one else to blame REFRAIN He thinks sometimes the clarity aint worth the fight When the hazy memories kept him up all night VERSE Seduced by the bottle For over half his life He knows the bartender better Than he knew his X wife Out of bad excuses And used-up alibis He hits his knees Again And prays that tonight’s the night PRE-CHORUS He thinks sometimes the clarity aint worth the fight When the hazy memories kept him up all night CHORUS And he’s flippin He’s just flippin He’s just flippin Flippin through the pages VERSE Flipping through the pages He finally sees the words Reaching out to him In ways he’s never heard The pages…tinted yellow The message plain to see “If you’re looking for salvation We meet once a week” REFRAIN He prays sometime the clarity will be worth the fight And those hazy memories don’t keep him up at night And he’s been flippin He’s been flippin He’s been flippin He’s been flippin through the pages And he’s been flippin (praying for a better day) He’s been (looking for a better way) He’s been flippin Flippin through the pages Flip Flippin He’s been flippin He’s been flippin Flippin through the tinted . . . yellow pages
