Tom: G

     G                                        G
The old ark's a-moverin', a- moverin', a- moverin'
                                   D7       G
The old ark's a-moverin', by the spirit of God!
                               D7           G
The old ark's a-moverin', a- moverin', a- moverin'
                           D7        G
The old ark's a-movin' and I thank God.

[Verse 1]
G
How many days did the water fall ?
D7                G
Forty days and nights in all.

Old ark she reel. Old ark she rock,
             D7            G
Old ark she landed on a mountain top.

[Chorus]
     G                                        G
The old ark's a-moverin', a- moverin', a- moverin'
                                   D7       G
The old ark's a-moverin', by the spirit of God!
                               D7           G
The old ark's a-moverin', a- moverin', a- moverin'
                           D7        G
The old ark's a-movin' and I thank God

[Verse 2]
G
Ham, Shem, and Japheth was settin' one day,
D7                              G
Talkin' on the upper deck and lookin' at the bay,
G
While they was disputin' 'bout this and that,
D7                      G
The ark done bump on Ararat.

[Chorus]
     G                                        G
The old ark's a-moverin', a- moverin', a- moverin'
                                   D7       G
The old ark's a-moverin', by the spirit of God!
                               D7           G
The old ark's a-moverin', a- moverin', a- moverin'
                           D7        G
The old ark's a-movin' and I thank God

[Verse 3]
G
See that sister dressed so fine ?
D7                     G
She ain't got religion on her mind.
G
See that brother just wants to play ?
D7                       G
Devil's gonna come and carry him away.


[Chorus]
     G                                        G
The old ark's a-moverin', a- moverin', a- moverin'
                                   D7       G
The old ark's a-moverin', by the spirit of God!
                               D7           G
The old ark's a-moverin', a- moverin', a- moverin'
                           D7        G
The old ark's a-movin' and I thank God
