F Dm Bb C
F
Now Johnny took a trip to Brazil
Dm
To spread the truth, to preach what is real.
Bb
When he got back home he had such a fire,
C
But just a month later he lost his desire.
F
Now the world was calling, he couldn't miss out.
Dm
Closed his Bible and he started to doubt.
Bb
He ditched all his Christian friends
C
And he went back to the worldly trends.
CHORUS
Dm Bb
He said, "Why can't we keep it?
F C
Our quiet times and relationships?
Dm Bb F C
Why do we fall away so fast?
Dm Bb F C
We gotta fight the fight, day by day and night by night.
Dm Bb F C
That's the only way we're going to last. We're gonna last."
F Dm Bb C
F
Now all through the summer, Jill was for real.
Dm
Well, she had a fire that no one could steal.
Bb
And then school started. Got back to the clique,
C
Lost her faith so darn quick.
F
Well at first ya know she tried to keep it.
Dm
It was too hard she just couldn't do it.
Bb
Closed her Bible, went back to the crowd
C
As her quiet time fell to the ground.
CHORUS
F C Dm Bb F
Can't warm ourselves with the crowd. Can't put our Bibles down.
