[D] [A]
[D]
How you guys doing?
[C] So [Bm] I, every year, this is always a special [E] thing for me.
[F]
Cause I get to see, [F#] normally people I [A] haven't seen in a while, but [F] being that we [F#m] just did 60 shows.
[E]
[A]
I've seen some of them.
[F#] And I decided that every year this is kind of a thing where I try to bring out a song that [Fm] I've never done.
And [D#] [F] [G] I wrote, I got stuck in traffic on the way here.
[F#] I decided to do this really 20 minutes ago.
And this [G] is, I wrote this in the car.
[C#] Oh, [A] shit.
[D#]
[D#m] [F#m] [A#]
I'll hold it.
If it doesn't, the [D#] song's over.
[G] Anyway, [F#] so this is a song [D#] that I've never, [F#] I've never [G] done, never played.
And I'm always been [Em] intrigued by, [D#] [F] and a lot of my [Em] songs are
[F#] spiritual based.
And this was, I was thinking about the difference [A#] in
[F#] the Old [E] Testament than the Bible and the New Testament.
[F#] And I heard it, I heard somebody [D#] on TV one night, [A#] forgiveness, [F#]
[D#] which [F] I believe [F#] in.
But I think [F] that some people take [F#] advantage of it.
So this is a, [D#] where's the song came [A#] from?
[E]
[F#]
[E]
[F#m] [E]
[F#] [E] Yeah, I'll never forget [C#] the way you felt.
[Em] Being disciplined by [B] the Bible way.
[E] You fold your hands and bow your head.
Everybody [F#] forgets when they can't forget.
[Em] It's hard to see the world like that.
[E] You become a husband and a dad.
For up to me, what I would do, is treat them eye for eye, tooth for tooth.
Matthew, Mark, [A]
Luke and [B] John.
[E]
I did what [F#] you're teaching.
[B]
[E] But if the world thinks when I turn [A] it up,
[E] it's a sign of weakness.
Then you [D#] ain't gonna [B] like [F#] what you see.
From Old Testament.
[E]
[F#]
[E] [B]
If danger shows up at my door, you better be prepared [E] for it.
I'm not a violent man, but I'm a son of a bitch when you box me.
I see the news I read and make, seems like everything's gone bad.
But if judgment was my [B] debate, I'd be the first to send you there.
[E]
Matthew, Mark, [Am] Luke [B] and John.
[E] I did what you're teaching.
[A]
[B] But [E] if the world mistakes my [A] turning up, [B] it's [F#] a [A]
[E] sign of weakness.
[A]
[G#] Then you ain't gonna [B] like what you [A]
see.
[B] From Old Testament.
[A]
[B]
[C#m] [B]
[A]
[Bm] There's a time and place for grace and [A] love in them.
[Am] There's a time for turning [F#m] tables just like Jesus [B] did.
[A] [E]
Matthew, Mark, [A]
Luke [B] and John.
[E]
I did what you're teaching.
[A] [B] But [E] if the world thinks when I [A] turn it up, [C#]
[A] [E] it's a sign of [A] weakness.
[C#m] Then you [B] ain't gonna like what [A] you see.
From [B] Old Testament.
