  | C             | G/C          | Fm6                | C
You took a trip and climbed a tree   at Robert Sledge's party

                        | G/C        | Fm6                             | C
And there you stayed 'til morning came   And you were not the same after that

                    | G/C
You gave your life to Jesus Christ

| Fm6                | C
    And after all your friends went home

                 | G/C          | Fm6                  | C
You came down, you looked around    and you were not the same after that

           | Fmaj7                  | G
You see them drop like flies from the bright sunny skies

        | Fmaj7                         | G
They come knocking at your door with this look in their eyes

      | Fmaj7                     | G
You got one   good trick and you're hangin’ on, you're hangin’ on...

| C
    To it...

  | C               | G/C
You took the word and made it heard

| Fm6                    | C
    and eased the people's pain and for that

                        | G/C   | Fm6              | C
You were idolized, immortalized,    you were not the same after that

                  | G/C          | Fm6              | C
Walking tall, you'd bought it all,   you were not the same after that

                       | G/C        | Fm6                  | C
'Til someone died on the water slide    and you were not the same after that
