chorus
          C    (FC)            F             C
I have decided,    I'm gonna live like a believer, 
         F              C    F C          G
turn my back on the deciever   I'm gonna live what I believe.
F         C            F               C
I have decided, being good is just a fable,
        F                    C           G7              C
I just can't 'cause I'm not able, Gonna leave it to the Lord.

verse 1
C                               G             F              C
There's a wealth of things that I profess, I said that I believed.
     F              C               G                 G7
But deep inside i never changed, I guess I'd been deceived.
           C                 G              F                G
'cause a voice inside kept telling me that I'd change by and by.
         F              C                 G                C
But the Spirit made it clear to me, that kind of life's a lie.

chorus
verse 2
 C                     G               F                   C
So forget the game of being good, and your self righteous pain.
            F           C                      G               G7
'cause the only good inside your heart is the good that Jesus brings.
          C               G                     F               C
When the world begins to see you change, don't expect them to applaud.
                F               C                   G               C
Just keep your eyes on Him and tell yourself I've become a work of God.
