Carry out his will when convenient is the way

He was created in the image of yourself
      Dm            G          C    G     F
But you wouldn't recognize him if he walked alone
    Dm               G            C     G   F
In fact you'd be the first one to throw the stone
       G                  Am     C       C  G  F
Not realising he was your own

Proving your devotion for an hour every week

Following the path of responsibility
      Dm              G               C     G       F
While hiding from the kind that would truly set you free
         Dm      G              C      G    F
You’re obviously scared of that kind of honesty
           G                    Am       C           C   G  F
You want advice - don't look to me

From all of the directions everybody's looking in

Easy comes the critic to the one who has so much
Dm             G             C     G    F
All the phony history you're using as a crutch
            Dm               G                C     G       F
But there's one thing I’m forgetting and the saying goes as such
            G              Am      C        C   G   F
