Gm Bb
Now, in my house there's been a mercy killing
F C/G Gm
The man I used to be's been crucified
Gm Bb
And the death of this man is the final way of revealing,
F C/G Gm
In the spiritual way, to live I had to die
Gm Bb
Now if I let that dead man linger in me,
F C/G Gm
I might get a little idle in my way
Gm Bb
So I'm going down to the celebration river,
F C/G Gm
Gonna take this dead man down to a water grave
Gm - Bb - F - C/G - Gm x2
Gm Bb
I'm going down to the river
F C/G Gm
I'm gonna be buried alive
Gm Bb
I want to show my Heavenly Father,
F C/G Gm
The man I use to be has finally died
Gm
When I think of where I'm going
Bb
In terms of where I've been,
F C/G Gm
It makes me glad to know, my Lord, that I've been born again x2
Gm Bb
I'm going down to the river

I'm gonna be buried alive

I want to show my Heavenly Father,
F C/G Gm
The man I use to be has finally died x2
