And try to keep you nailed to the floor

Join us for the countdown to the rapture
    D      G       D      A        D
We never turned a sinner from our door.

Learn the fundamentals of desire
 G           D      G          D
Can I get a witness to my testament?
 G             D   A         D
Can I get an amen from the choir?
