F Dm C


[Verse 1]
 F
Some folks will do anything for money
 Dm        C        F
Cheat and lie and steal
  F
Won't even take the time to go to church on sunday
Dm                       C             F
But they got plenty of time to make a deal


[Chorus]
  Bb                    F
Please forgive me if I ever act like that
                            C
That ain't the way I wanna be
   F
I pray every night that everything I do be
 Dm      C       F
for the love of God
Bb               F                   C
For the love of God is why I try so hard
F
I ain't trying to win the praise of man
   Dm           C       F
I live for the love of God


[Solo]
F Dm C F


[Verse 2]
 F
Some people only want to have a good time
Dm            C        F
Drinking and carrying home
 F
They get behind the wheel and the next thing you know
     Dm      C       F
Somebody's child is gone


[Chorus]
  Bb                    F
Please forgive me if I ever get that way
                            C
That ain't the way I wanna be
   F
I pray every night that everything I do be
 Dm      C       F
for the love of God
Bb               F                   C
For the love of God is why I try so hard
F
I ain't trying to win the praise of man
   Dm           C       F
I live for the love of God


[Solo]
F Dm C F Dm C F


[Outro]
 Bb              F                   C
For the love of God is why I try so hard
 F
I ain't trying to win the praise of man
   Dm           C      F
I live for the love of God
 F
I ain't trying to win the praise of man
   Dm           C       F
I live for the love of God
