  			    G 
You say that you're born again 
C 
Cleansed of your former sins 
    G                 D 
You want me to say "I forgive and forget" 
    G 
But you've done too much to me 
C 
Don't you be touching me, 
G                           D            G  
Go back and touch all those women you've met 
 
       C          D             G 
'Cause God may forgive you, but I won't 
C          D              G 
Yes, Jesus loves you, but I don't 
     C                                 G 
They don't have to live with you, well neither do I 
    C                           G  
You say that you're born again, well so am I 
C                        D              
God may forgive you, but I won't 
      C       D  G  
and I won't even try 
 
 
Well, the kids had to cry for you 
I had to try to do 
Things that the Dad should do 
Since you've been gone 
Well, you really let us down 
You may be Heaven 'bound 
But you've left one hell of a mess here at home 
 
Chorus 
 
and I won't even try
