there would be [C]psalms sung by a [D]choir
i would have a white [C]robe a halo newly [D]acquired
i'd be at [C]peace and i'd have no de[D]sire
if i'd lived [E]right[E1] [E2]
there would be cherubs with tiny harps arrows and bows
i'd have a halo and a flowing white robe
i'd be enfolded by a celestial light
if i'd lived right
but i'm feeling hot and bothered under the collar
i feel the sweat breaking out on my brow
i feel the heat and i know it's the passion
the love i can't disavow
if this is a dream wake me up now
if this is a movie let's edit these scenes out
it would be a pg instead of an x rated life
if i'd lived right
some would call me a cheat call me a liar
say that i've been defeated by the basest desired
yes i have strayed and succumbed to my vices
but i tried to live right
but i have no regrets no guilt in my heart
i only feel sadness for any pain that i've caused
i guess i wouldn't bother to worry at all
if i'd lived right
do you live by the book do you play by the rules
do you care what is thought by others about you
if this day is all that is promised to you
do you life for the future the present the past
if there is one thing i know i know i will die
if anyone cares some stranger my critique my life
i may be revered or defamed and decried
but i tried to live right
there would be psalms sung by a choir
i would have a white robe a halo newly acquired
i'd be at peace and i'd have no desire
if i'd lived right
