You're Not My God

It's just a piece of paper, it says, "In God We Trust"

And a little sure felt good, but a lot was not enough

And everybody loved me when I was on a roll

And I thought I had everything when I held the gold

But you're not my God and you're not my friend

You're not the one that I will walk with in the end

You're not the truth, you're a temporary shot

And you ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought

You're not my God

Little white lies on a mirror, cut neatly in a row

Medicine that kept me from lookin' in my soul

I thought you were the answer to all of my despair

And you almost had me six feet down, but I'm still breathin' air

Oh, 'cause you're not my God and you're not my friend

And you're not the one that I will walk with in the end

You're not the truth, you're a temporary shot

And you ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought

You're not my God

From the cradle to the grave, temptation's all around

But no matter how good the fix, it's gonna take you down

Now, some call it a weakness, some call it a sin

But it's all the same behind each game, I see your evil grin

And you're not my God, you're not my friend

And you're not the one that I will walk with in the end

And you're not the truth, you're a temporary shot

And you ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought

Oh, you're not my God and you're not my friend

And you're not the one that I will walk with in the end

And you're not the truth, you're a temporary shot

And you ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought

You're not my God

And you're not my God

You're not my God

You're not my God

Not my God

Not my God

You're not, you're not, you're not my God

No, you're not

This is my one chord song

It's easy to sing along

'Cause there ain't much in the way of change

But sometimes, life can be that way

Yeah, there ain't too that much I can do with a melody

'Cause I'm stuck within the confines of the single key of G

But this is my one chord song

I can't go on too long

'Cause I've said all I've got to say

And you probably won't hear this anyway

Yeah, now here's the same thing that you heard eight bars before

And if you're just like me, I'm sure you are bored with this chord

But if I can make you stop and think about the life you're living in

'Cause you and I, we don't have long, so make the most before it's gone

'Cause this is my one chord song

Now, I can make it sound like there's another chord

But you'd be fooled 'cause there's only one

And this is my one chord song

This is my one chord song

This is my one chord song
