Basics Of Life

C D7 G
                C          D7            G
We've turned the page For a new day has dawned
          Am7     C           D7                G
And we've rearranged What is right and what's wrong
                 F                      C
Somehow we've drifted So far from the truth
                        D                       C
That we can't get back home And where are the virtues
                    G                Am7    C
That once gave us light And where are the morals
                    G            Em           F
That governed our lives Someday we all will awake
            C                           D
And look back just to find What we've lost

G                           Bm7
We need to get back To the basics of life
            C                D
A heart that is pure And a love that is blind
   G                         Bm7
A faith that is Fervently grounded in Christ
      G                         C
The hope that endures for all time
Am7                              F
These are the basics We need to get back
          C         G      C
To the basics of life.....Oh oh

            C            D       G           Am7     C
The newest rage is to reason it out And just meditate
             D          G               F
You can overcome every doubt After all man is a god
          C                 D              C
They say God is no longer alive But I still believe
                       G      Am7      C
In the old rugged cross Oh I still believe
                          G        Am
there is hope for the lost And I know
     F                     C
the Rock of all Ages Will stand
                        D                               C D
Through the changes of time Through the changes of time


  Bb            F       G
We've let the darkness Invade us too long
              G7        F   C    Bb           F
We've got to turn the tide    Oh we need the passion
        G                        G7        F    Dsus
That burned long ago To come and open our eyes
 D            Dsus      D
No room for compromise
