A D A People steal, they cheat and lie D A For wealth and what it will buy D A Don't they know, on judgement day E A Gold and silver will melt away D A I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave D A And know that my poor soul was saved D A Than to live in this world in a house of gold E A And deny my god and doom my soul Instrumental: D A D A D A D A D A What good is gold and silver too D A In your heart's not good and true D A Sinner, hear me when I say E A Fall down on your knees and pray D A I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave D A And know that my poor soul was saved D A Than to live in this world in a house of gold E A And deny my god and doom my soul
