Intro:

Riff A:

Verse 1:

E5 G5 C5

You don't understand this is not what you think it is.

E5 G5 C5

You don't get it man you want to boilit down to show biz.

Your in-depth research shows:

drop the God, emphasize the beat

I've heard that positive pop you dig--

I'd rather be buried in wet concrete

Chorus: with Riff A

E5 C5 E5 C5

Take back your free advice I don't accept

E5 C5

I will not play those games

B5 D5

God is not a secret to be kept

B5 D5

God is not a secret to be kept

Verse 2: same as first

You don't understand

I'm not talking multiple choice

You don't get it, man

if the cross offends you, find another voice

I am not running for office here

I won't keep it purposefully vague

I've heard New Age Life-force trip

I'd rather be dipped in bubonic plague

Chorus 2: with Riff A

Take back your free advice

I don't accept

I will not play those games

God is not a secret to be kept

God is not a secret to be kept

If we keep silent

If we mass defect

These very rocks will scream

God is not a secret to be kept

God is not a secret to be kept

Interlude:

E5 G5 F#5 D5

Bridge:

E5 G5 F#5 D5

And would I wash my hands again?

E5 G5 A5 D5

And would I wash my hands again?

E5

And would I wash my hands again?

F#5

Would I deny my savior when

G5

he hung inside the public square?

A5

Did not my silence put him there?

Chorus: with Riff A

Take back your free advice

I don't accept

I will not play those games

God is not a secret to be kept

God is not a secret to be kept

If we keep silent

If we mass defect

These very rocks will scream

God is not a secret to be kept

God is not a secret to be kept
