Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's been passed down
Gold leaf and worn out leather
It leaves no doubt between what's right and wrong
I found a note stuck in the pages
It looks like Grandpa's writing
The ink is getting faded, but the truth is just as strong
[Chorus]
Where can you go when you ain't getting nowhere?
Every turn is a dead-end road
The rain starts to fall and you're so lost out there
Really only one place I know
When your whole world falls to pieces
And you don't know how to build it back
There's a red-letter blueprint in King James black
[Verse 2]
I'll admit I left it on that night stand
Until the dust on it started settling on my soul
Yeah, but ain't it just like Jesus to keep his arms wide open?
When I bring Him all my broken, He always makes me whole
[Chorus]
Where can you go when you ain't getting nowhere?
Every turn is a dead-end road
The rain starts to fall and you're so lost out there
Really only one place I know
When your whole world falls to pieces
And you don't know how to build it back
There's a red-letter blueprint in King James black
[Verse 3]
It's been passed down
Gold leaf and worn out leather
Oh, it leaves no doubt between what's right and wrong
[Chorus]
Where can you go when you ain't getting nowhere?
Every turn is a dead-end road
The rain starts to fall and you're so lost out there
Really only one place I know
When your whole world falls to pieces
You don't know how to build it back
There's a red-letter blueprint
Yeah, there's a red-letter blueprint
There's a red-letter blueprint in King James black
In King James black
