VERSE:
DWill you fighCt
DFor the causeC?
DCan you teCach the Dsavage Cmind
DTheir ways are wCrong
DHelp them seCe
DWhat they waCnt and whDat they nCeed?
And Gif we have to twEmist their arms
AThey know not what they do is wrong
CHORUS:
And iDf you saiBmd I would F#maj7go to heaven

DAnd if you sBmaid I would F#maj7go to heavenD  
Now mBmaybe I'll, mF#maj7aybe I'll, mAaybe I'll tryD  
*the rest is the same...*
VERSE:
Heretics and hypocrites
Wear the same face through the years
Of telling lies
And laying blame
Damn the fire then feed the flame
Don't dance, or sing, or try to think
Their image is planted in your head
CHORUS:
And if you said I would go to heaven
Now, maybe I'll try
And if you said I would be a rich man
Now maybe I'll, maybe I'll, maybe I'll try
VERSE:
Ivy is just a dog
With a heart that's noble as
The greatest man
Who ever lived
Won't you please help her learn?
And if we have to twist her arm
She knows not what she does is wrong
CHORUS:
And if you said I would go to heaven
Now, maybe I'll try
And if you said I would go to heaven
Now maybe I'll, maybe I'll, maybe I'll try
Maybe I'll try.
Maybe I'll try.
