_ look here, brothers and sisters, we've got hypocrites in this crowd.
Brothers and sisters, [A] some of you are [Dm] shouting too loud.
[Gm] You'll find [Dm] out on judgment day, you can't fool the Lord that way.
Brothers and sisters, [E] here's all I've got to [D] say.
You can shout with all your might, but if you ain't living right, then don't you shout
in [A] that amen corner.
_ [Em] If your name ain't on that roll, all that noise gonna save your soul, [Ab] so stop your shouting
[A] in that amen corner.
_ [D] You can't wear no [Am] old shoes if you haven't behaved.
[Ab] Better think before you sound, [A] or the devil's gonna find you out.
[Gb] So don't stop talking all this talk, if you want to [Ab] be saved, or the devil will [Gb] find you
out in [D] that amen corner.

Now look here, can't hear my own soul preaching, boy, you're a shout not a speech, boy, you
[G] make me forget my [D] text.
Every meeting leaves me so vain.
Come here and pray [A] on Sunday, [D] and you serve the devil on [D] Monday.
If you [G] want to save your soul, [D] better get yourself some self-control.
Shouting here don't mean nothing when you're playing with fire.
[E] Change your ways, if you want to, in [A] that heavenly choir.
_ [D] Makes no difference how you look.
[A] All that's practicing is ungrateful.
[E] Stop your shouting in that [D] amen corner.
