[Verse 1]
N.C.           E      A                   E
There are some people   who say we cannot tell
               B7                      E
Whether we are saved or whether all is well
N.C.                 E                         A
They say we only can hope and trust that it is so
                         E                 B7             E    A E
Well I was there when it happened and so I guess I oughta know
[Chorus]
N.C.                  B7
Yes I know when Jesus saved me (saved my soul)
                      E
The very moment He forgave me (made me whole)
                      F#7
He took away my heavy burdens
                      B7
Lord He gave me peace within (peace within)
N.C.                E
Satan can't make me doubt it (I won't doubt it)
                        A
It's real and I'm gonna shout it (I'm gonna shout it)
                    E                 B7             E    A E
I was there when it happened and so I guess I oughta know
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
N.C.             E        A                  E
I don't care who tells me   salvation is not real
                     B7                   E
Though the world may argue that we cannot feel
N.C.               E                        A
The heavy burden's lifted and the vile sins go
                    E                 B7             E    A E
I was there when it happened and so I guess I oughta know
[Chorus]
N.C.                  B7
Yes I know when Jesus saved me (saved my soul)
                      E
The very moment He forgave me (made me whole)
                      F#7
He took away my heavy burdens
                      B7
Lord He gave me peace within (peace within)
N.C.                E
Satan can't make me doubt it (I won't doubt it)
                        A
It's real and I'm gonna shout it (I'm gonna shout it)
                    E                 B7             E    A E
I was there when it happened and so I guess I oughta know
