[G] I'm standing at the crossroads in [C] life, and I don't know where to [G] go.

[C] Let me play it one more time, I'll tell the truth and make it rhyme
And hope they under[D]stand [G] me.
|[Chorus]
|[D] Now I lay me down to sleep
|Pray the Lord my soul to keep
|[C] And if I die before I wake, Feed [G] Jake

and so would their [D] mam[G]as
[Chorus]
Verse 3:
[G] Now if you get an ear [C] pierced, some will call you [G] gay.

does it really [D] mat[G]ter
|[Chorus]
|[D] Now I lay me down to sleep
|Pray the Lord my soul to keep
|[C] And if I die before I wake, Feed [G] Jake
|he's been a [D] good dog, [Em] my best friend, [C] right through it all
|if I [G] die before I [D] wake, feed [G] Jake
