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
