[Verse 1]
D#m F#
I gotta try to do right when life's doing me wrong
G#m B A#7
Gotta shake the dust off my feet and keep marchin' on
D#m F#
When trouble weighs me down, and brings me to my knees
G#m
Lord, my needs are many, but that's a pretty
B A#7
Yeah a pretty good place to be
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m
Don't blame it on the preacher 'cuz the preacher done told
F#
"The devil's got a target on my heart and my soul"
G#m
But let me tell you, brother, what the devil don't know

[Verse 2]
D#m F#
I may never get money, I may never have fame
G#m B A#7
But if I'm ever in the spotlight, I'll point it back your way

Singing hallelujah 'til I hit the dirt, oh
