D G D
People steal they cheat and lie
D7
For wealth and what it will buy
G D
But don't they know on judgement day
A D
That gold and silver will melt away
D G D
I'd rather be in a deep dark grave
D7
And know that my poor soul was saved
G D
Than to live in a world in a house of gold
A D
And deny my God and doom my soul
D G D
What good is gold and silver too
D7
If your heart's not pure and true
G D
Oh sinner hear me when I say
A D
Fall down upon your knees and pray
repeat chorus
