INTRO 
 
 
                       D             A 
As we journey along on life's wicked road, 
                                 E7 
So selfish are we for silver and gold. 
        A                          D            A         
You can treasure your wealth, your diamonds and gold, 
                                 E7          A 
But my friend it won't save your poor wicked soul. 
 
 
                            D          A  
For when God calls from his home up on high, 
                                        E7  
To your earthly wealth you must say goodbye. 
         A                        D                A     
Then its useless to you if you've strayed from the fold, 
                                 E7          A 
For my friend it won't save your poor wicked soul. 
 
 
A   D   A   E7   A   D   A   E7   A 
INSTRUMENTAL 
 
 
                              D              A    
The rich man like all will be judged at that time, 
                                     E7 
But all of his wealth will be left behind. 
       A                       D              A        
For no matter how much earthly wealth you get hold, 
                             E7          A 
My friend it won't save your poor wicked soul. 
                             E7          A  
My friend it won't save your poor wicked soul.
