| VERSE 1: |
| Am | Am7/G | Bm7 | A7 | |
| I was | walking through the | counters of a | national con | cern |
| F/C | C | G | Cadd9 | |
| And a | cash machine was | spitting by my | shoulder |
| Am | Am7/G | Bm7 | A7 | |
| And I | saw the multi | tude of faces, | honest, rich and | clean |
| F/C | C | G | Cadd9 | |
| As the | merchandise excha | nged and money | roared |
| C | G | Am | Am7/G | |
| And a | woman hot with | worry slyly | slipped a tin of | stewing steak |
| D/F# | C | G | Cadd9 | |
| Into the paper | bag at her | side |
| C | G | Am | |
| And her | face was white with | fear in case her | actions |
| Am7/G | |
| Were | observed |
| D/F# | C | G | Cadd9 | |
| So she | closed her eyes to | keep her conscience | blind |
| CHORUS: |
| Am | Am7/G | |
| Crying | God knows I'm | good |
| D7/F# | F | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| F | E | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| Am | C/G | E | |
| God may look the | other way to | day |
| Am | Am7/G | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| D7/F# | F | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| F | E | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| Am | C/G | E | |
| God may look the | other way to | day |
| VERSE 2: |
| Am | Am7/G | Bm7 | A7 | |
| Then she | moved toward the | exit clutching | tightly at her | paper bag |
| F/C | C | G | Cadd9 | |
| Perspiration | trickled down her | forehead |
| Am | Am7/G | Bm7 | A7 | |
| And her | heart it leapt in | side her as the | hand laid on her | shoulder |
| F/C | C | G | Cadd9 | |
| She was | led away be | wildered and a | mazed |
| C | G | Am | Am7/G | |
| Through her | deafened ears the | cash machines were | shrieking on the | counter |
| D/F# | C | G | |
| As her | escort asked her | softly for her | name |
| C | G | Am | Am7/G | |
| And a | crowd of honest | people rushed to | help a tired old | lady |
| D/F# | C | G | |
| Who had | fainted to the | whirling wooden | floor |
| CHORUS: |
| Am | Am7/G | |
| Crying | God knows I'm | good |
| D7/F# | F | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| F | E | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| Am | C/G | E | |
| Surely God won't | look the other | way |
| Am | Am7/G | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| D7/F# | F | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| F | E | |
| God knows I'm | good |
| Am | C/G | E | |
| Surely God won't | look the other | way |
