(Verse)
C
You took a trip
G
And climbed a tree
F C
At Robert Sledge's party
C G
And there you stayed 'til morning came
F C
You were not the same after that
C
You gave your life
G
To Jesus Christ
F C
And after all your friends went home
C
You came down
G
You looked around
F C
And you were not the same after that
(pre-chorus)
Am F
Ahhhhhhhh ahhhhhh
C G
You were not the same after that
Am F
Ahhhhhhh Ahhhhh
C G
You were not the same after that
(Chorus)
F
You see 'em drop like flies
G
From the bright sunny skies
F
They come knocking at your door
G
With this look in their eyes
F
You got one good trick
G
And you're hangin' on
F
You're hangin' on
G
To it
(repeat verse)
You took the word
And made it heard
And eased the people's pain
And for that
You were idolized immortalized
And you were not the same after that
Walking tall
You'd bought it all
And you were not the same after that
Till someone died
On the water slide
And you were not the same after that
(repeat chorus)
You see 'em drop like flies
From the bright sunny skies
They come knocking at your door
With this look in their eyes
You got one good trick
And you're hangin' on
You're hangin' on
To it
Am F
OOOOO OOOOO OOOOO OOOOO
OOOOO OOOOO OOOOO OOOOO
You see 'em drop like flies
From the bright sunny skies
They come knocking at your door
With this look in their eyes
You got one good trick
And you're hangin' on
You're hangin' on
You see them drop like flies
You're hangin' on
You're hangin' on
You're hangin' on
