You can't love your money

And I'll die before I try again

I didn't need 'em anyways

I've tried to earn His love

But I really dug a hole, the night got cold

         D                     G
A mortal soul can't bare that cross

My hands are red

          G                       Em
And I am guilty of a multitude of sins

Without the cover of His blood

Em
When I die a beggar

      G
And I walk through Heaven's doors

       G
All the evils of this rotting world

Traded for a home

Em
You can go there with me

            G
And you'll never be alone

    G
You gotta lose the world before the world

    D          Em
Can gain your soul
