[Intro 1]
[C][G][C][G][F][G][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Back in junior high,
well, I [G]was a bit [C]wild
Pretty safe to say that I
[G]was a troubled [F]child
[C]Didn't go to Juvie but
they [G]had me on [C]file
Drinking like a man, but thinking [G]like a [C]child

[Verse 2]
You [C]wouldn't want to know me,
man I [G]was a hoo[C]ligan
It was the only crowd who
would [G]ever take me [F]in
[C]Cared about nothing- that's
the loser's [G]way [C]to win
I hit the ninth grade and [G]something
happened [Am]then

[Verse 3]
And it [Em]was a s[F]acri[C]fice
(Whoa-oa-oa)
There are [G]those who give their [C]lives

[Verse 4]
Lord [G]I'll [F]follow if I have
to leave all that I [C]know
You [G]go, I'll [F]go and I know
that I don't go [G]alone
Even if it's [F]only me that [G]goes
Even if it's [F]only me that [G]goes
Even if it's [F]only me that [C]goes

[Verse 5]
I will follow.
[C][F]
[C]I came to know my God first
year of [G]high [C]school
Not a smart move if [G]you're try
ing to [F]be cool
They [C]knew me as a druggie who
wouldn't follow rules
My friends didn't get it and
[G]they thought I was [C]a fool

[Verse 6]
They [C]called me self-righteous 'cause
'cause I [G]wouldn't smoke [C]pot
And now I didn't wanna split
a [G]bottle of [F]Schnapps
[C]Plus I didn't wanna go
[G]running from the [C]cops
And that's how I lost all
[G]the friends I [C]got.[Am]

[Verse 7]
And it [Em]was a s[F]acri[C]fice
(Whoa-oa-oa)
There are [G]those who give their [C]lives

[Verse 8]
Lord [G]I'll [F]follow if I have
to leave all that I [C]know
You [G]go, I'll [F]go and I know
that I don't go [G]alone
Even if it's [F]only me that [G]goes
Even if it's [F]only me that [G]goes
Even if it's [F]only me that [C]goes
I will [G]follow.
[C][G][Em]

[Interlude 1]
[D][C][Em][F][C]

[Verse 9]
So [C]everyone
I knew just thought I was a freak
I wasn't hard to tell that
[G]they didn't want to [F]speak
I used to [C]be cool, but now I was a geek
Like drugs are for the strong and
God is [G]for the [C]weak

[Verse 10]
[C]Everything I have, well, I [G]gave it to the [C]cross
I count it as trash,
I don't [G]hesitate [F]to toss
[C]What I held dear was a [G]burden to be [C]lost
To get to the gold you've got
to [G]burn up [C]the dross[Am]

[Verse 11]
And it [Em]was a sacri[F]fice[C]
(Whoa-oa-oa)
There are [G]those who give their [C]lives

[Verse 12]
Lord [G]I'll [F]follow if I have
to leave all that I [C]know
You [G]go, I'll [F]go and I know
that I don't go [G]alone
Even if it's [F]only me that [G]goes
Even if it's [F]only me that [G]goes
Even if it's [F]only me that [C]goes
I will fol[C]low.
