Intro: G (4x) 

G                                                        Am 
I look the part, blend in with the rest of the church crowd 
                       C                                                      G 
I know the routine, I could list all the bible studies in town 
                                                                                Am 
watch christian TV, I know all the preachers...their cliches 
                    C                                                          G 
been born again, without a doubt I know I'm saved 
  
    Am 
But sometimes I hurt and sometimes I cry,  
                                  C                                                        G 
sometimes I can't get it right, no matter how hard I seem to try 
                                                                        Am 
sometimes I fall down, stumble over my own disguise 
                      C                                                       D     G  
I try to look strong, as the whole world looks on, but sometimes alone I cry 

verse 2 
                         G                                              Am 
I try to speak faith, never give the devil one inch to get in 
                                C                                                      G 
I do worship and praise, let everybody know just where that I stand 
                                                                            Am 
on the back of my ride is a fish and a cross, for the world to see 

               C                                                                        G 
I know God is good, all of the time, yes there's no doubt for me 

  
 Am 
But sometimes I hurt and sometimes I cry,  
                                  C                                                       G 
sometimes I can't get it right, no matter how hard I seem to try 
                                                                        Am 
sometimes I fall down, stumble over my own disguise 
                      C                                                       D    G  
I try to look strong, as the whole world looks on, but sometimes alone I cry

sometimes I fall down, stumble over my own disguise 
                      C                                                      D      G  
I try to look strong, as the whole world looks on, but sometimes alone I cry

                     Am                                                      D      G  
I try to look strong, as the whole world looks on, but sometimes alone I cry
