There's a wealth of things that I profess
B F#
I said that I believed
B F#
But deep inside I never changed

I guess I'd been deceived

'Cause a voice inside kept telling me
B F#
That I'd change by and by
B F#
But the spirit made it clear to me
C#
That kind of life's a lie

Just keep your eyes on him and tell yourself
