C         G/B
Why can't we be humble
Am             C7     (C7/G)
Like the good lord said
F              C
He promised to exalt us
   F/G
But low is the way
C          G/B
How man be so greedy
Am             C7
When there's so much left?
F              C
All things god given
       F/G
And they all have been blessed

Let not your heart be troubled
Let mourning sobbing cease
Learn to help one another
And live in perfect peace

If we just be humble
Like the good lord said
He promised to exalt us
But low is the way

Chorus

I hope you get this message
Where you won't others will
You may not understand me
But Billy'll love you still
