INTRO: D   A7 D

                                    G
There's only one rule that you must heed
            D                A7
It conquers fear, hatred and greed
              D                    G
It trumps all others, your soul to feed
             D       A7           D
There's only one rule you'll ever need


N.C.         D                 G
You could be Hindu, you may be Sikh
            D                          A7
It makes no difference what tongue you speak
                  D                   G
You could pray to Allah, or be an Atheist
            D         A7               D      D7
You will be righteous, if you remember this


CHORUS:
             G                    D
It ain't the silver, it ain't the bronze
                                    A    A7
It's the foundation that all rests upon
            D                    G
No precious metal will save your soul
                D      A7
But if you seek glory
N.C.       D
Go for the gold

N.C.           D                        G
Some so-called Christians, from time to time
            D               A7
Forget this rule and become blind
               D                     G
They use their church to try and separate
                 D     A7                D       D7
When it's common ground that can make us great


BRIDGE:
   G                            
Forget those silly little laws
     D
That thou shalt not, days of the week
E                               
How to dress, who stoned who
A                A7
What you can and cannot eat


N.C.        D                   G
When you go home now, remember, please
              D                       A7
To count your blessings, down on your knees
           D                           G
And make a promise, to do the best you can
             D     A7              D     D7
To even be a friend to your fellow man


CHORUS:
             G                    D
It ain't the silver, it ain't the bronze
                                   A    A7
It doesn't matter what team you're on
N.C.        D                    G
No precious metal will save your soul
                D      A7
But if you seek glory
N.C.        D
Go for the gold
