From Your Knees

Recorded by Randy Travis

Written by Leslie Winn Satcher
G 
He tore down the  
D7 
work of  
G 
17 
 
 
D7 
years brick by  
G 
brick
 
And  
D7 
stone by  
G 
stone
 
No hammer was  
D7 
swingin' cause  
G 
cheatin' and drinkin'
 
Don't  
D7 
need no help  
A7 
wreckin' a  
D7 
home
 
Ah but  
G 
when he came back through the dust and the  
D7 
rubble
 
Of  
G 
what he had once called his  
C 
life
 
He dropped to his knees in  
G 
sheer 
 
disbelief
 
Of the  
D7 
total destruction  
G 
inside
 
There were empty closets and  
D7 
empty 
 
drawers
 
And a  
G 
tear stained note on the  
C 
kitchen 
 
floor
 
And  
G 
burning memories in the fire
D7 
pla
A7 
ce 
 
 
D7 
 
He  
G 
waited too late to  
D7 
say he was wrong
 
His  
G 
house was still standing but his  
C 
home was gone
 
Brother  
G 
you would  
B7 
not 
 
be
Em 
lieve
A7 
C 
What you can  
D7 
see from your  
G 
knees
 
Right then and  
D7 
there in an  
G 
old sinner's  
D7 
prayer
 
He  
G 
told things he'd  
D7 
kept in the  
G 
dark 
 
 
D7 
 
There was  
G 
no use in  
D7 
lying
 
Cause the  
G 
Man who was listening
 
Could  
D7 
see every  
A7 
room in his  
D7 
heart
 
Ah he took  
G 
empty whisky bottles little black book and  
D7 
all
 
To the  
G 
fire she left on the  
C 
grate
 
Ah sometimes a man will  
G 
change on his own
 
But  
D7 
sometimes I tell you it  
G 
takes
 
Empty closets and  
D7 
empty 
 
drawers
 
And a  
G 
tear stained note on the  
C 
kitchen 
 
floor
 
And  
G 
burning memories in the fire
D7 
pla
A7 
ce 
 
 
D7 
 
He  
G 
waited too late to  
D7 
say he was wrong
 
His  
G 
house was still standing he'd  
C 
fight for his home
 
Brother  
G 
you would  
B7 
not 
 
be
Em 
lieve oh  
G 
you would  
B7 
not 
 
be
Em 
lieve
A7 
C 
What you can  
D7 
see from your  
G 
knees

Who is Randy Travis?
- Randy Bruce Traywick (born May 4, 1959), known professionally as Randy Travis, is an American country music and gospel music singer, songwriter, guitarist, and actor.Active from 1978 until being incapacitated by a stroke in 2013, he has recorded 20 studio albums and charted more than 50 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including sixteen that reached the No. 1 position. Considered a pivotal figure in the history of country music, Travis broke through in the mid-1980s with the release of his album Storms of Life, which sold more than four million copies. The album established him as a major force in the neotraditional country movement. Travis followed up his successful debut with a string of platinum and multi-platinum albums. He is known for his distinctive baritone vocals, delivered in a traditional style that has made him a country music star since the 1980s.
By the mid-1990s, Travis saw a decline in his chart success. In 1997, he left Warner Bros. Records for DreamWorks Records and then for Word Records, where he began recording more Christian material. Although the career shift produced only one more number-one country hit "Three Wooden Crosses", Travis went on to earn several Dove Awards, including Country Album of the Year five times. Since his stroke, which severely limited his singing and speaking ability, he has released archival recordings and made limited public appearances. In addition to his singing career, he pursued an acting career, appearing in numerous films and television series, including The Rainmaker (1997) with Matt Damon, Black Dog (1998) with Patrick Swayze, Texas Rangers (2001) with James Van Der Beek, National Treasure 2 (2007) and seven episodes of the Touched by an Angel television series.
Travis has sold over 25 million records and has won seven Grammy Awards, six CMA Awards, eleven ACM Awards, 10 AMA Awards, eight GMA Dove Awards, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 2016, Travis was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame.
