Dont Forget To Thank The Lord

INTRO:
E  C#m  B  E


VERSE:
       E
I see sad sad faces
    D
In faraway places
  A                       E
Scattered all around the world

           E
Living in cardboard cities
          D
Lord you gotta have pity
        A                       E
On the hungry little boys and girls

           E                     D
And if it wasn’t for a loving, gracious Lord
    A                    E
Uh that could be me and you

              E
It’s time to quit our complaining
 D
And start remembering
       A                       E
Just exactly who we owe it all to


CHORUS:
 E                        C#m
Don’t forget to thank the teacher
          A
And the preacher
     E           B             A
For saving your mind and your soul

 A                        C#m
Don’t forget to thank the fireman
       A
The policeman
           E             B         A
When your world’s going out of control

 A                        C#m
Don’t forget to thank the mothers
         A
And the soldiers
  E          D        A
Praying and going to war

 A                    C#m
And at the end of the day
 B                         E
Don’t forget to thank the Lord


INSTRUMENTAL:
E  C#m  B  E


VERSE:
              E
Well there’s too much hate
 D
Too much debatin’
     A                E
And politicking going on

           E
We get to fussing about the process
 D
Worried about the BS
    A                      E
Instead of what makes us strong

         E
Like In God We Trust
          D
And the ones we love
     A                 E
And working hard everyday

        E
And if you don’t like it friend
 D
You can leave it
         A                    E
But you better listen when I say

Don’t forget to thank the fireman
       A
The policeman
           E             B         A
