Capo 3
Em Am
Em B7
Em Am
Em B7 Em
Em Am
I walk though the valley of the shadow of death
Em B7
And I fear no evil because I'm blind to it all
Em Am
And my mind and my gun they comfort me
Em B7 Em
Because I know I'll kill my enemies when they come
Em Am
Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life
Em B7
and I will dwell on this earth forevermore.
Em Am
Said I walk beside the still waters and they restore my soul.
Em B7 Em
But I can't walk on the path of the right because I am wrong
Em Am
Well, I came upon a man at the top of the hill
Em B7
called himself the savior of the human race
Em Am
said he come to save the world from destruction and pain
Em B7 Em
but I said, "how can you save the world from itself?"
(Instrumental)

Part 2:
Em Am
Cause I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Em B7
and I fear no evil 'cause I'm blind.
Em Am
Oh, and I walk beside the still waters and they restore my soul,
Em B7 Em
but I know when I die my soul is damned.
