God Knows Why

C              D    G        Em 
Eat your heart out, rock 'n' roller 
C                 D           G        Em 
You can sing for God, you can sing for glory 
C              D               G  C  G 
But that don't make you a holy man 
C          D          G       Em 
When I get drunk, I'm nice to people 
C              D     G               Em 
I'm not asking much, just don't be cruel 
C D G  C  G 
    Holy man 

C             G 
I watched you suffer 
C             G 
I watched you cry 
C           G   Em 
I tried to hold you 
     C        D                         C      G 
But God knows why you spite the ones who love you 
C     D        G     Em 
Maybe you see joy as weakness 
C        D        G    Em 
Or maybe you just hate yourself 
C             D       C   G  C 
And that made me hate myself 
C             D         G          Em 
So read your books, and write your Bible 
C         D         G      Em 
But judge not, lest you be judged 
C D G  C  G 
    Holy man 

C             G 
I watched you suffer 
C             G 
I watched you cry 
C           G   Em 
I tried to hold you 
     C        D                         C      G 
But God knows why you spite the ones who love you 
C             G 
I watched you suffer 
C             G 
I watched you cry 
C           G   Em 
I tried to hold you 
     C        D                         C      G 
But God knows why you spite the ones who love you
