 You took a trip and climbed a tree

 Fm/C               C(inv)
 At Robert Sledge's party

C                    G/C
And there you stayed 'till morning came

 Fm/C                 C(inv)
 And you were not the same after that

 C                  G/C
 You gave your life to Jesus Christ

 Fm/C               C(inv)
 And after all your friends went home

 C              G/C
 You came down, you looked around

 Fm/C                 C           (bash piano x4)
 And you were not the same after that



 Am    F
 (Ahhh ahhh)

 C                G
 You were not the same after that

 Am    F
 (Ahhh ahhh)

 C                G
 You were not the same after that

             F                        G
 You see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny
 skies

             F                             G
 They come knocking at your door with this look in
 their eyes

              F                       G
 You've got one good trick and you're hanging on you're
 hanging on...


 To it


 You took the word and made it heard
 And eased the people's pain and for that
 You were idolised, immortalised
 And you were not the same after that

 Walking tall, you'd bought it all
 And you were not the same after that
 Till someone died on the waterslide
 And you were not the same after that

 You see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny
 skies
 They come knocking at your door with this look in
 their eyes
 You've got one good trick and you're hanging on you're
hanging on to it

 (ooh ooh ooh ooh)
 (YOU WERE NOT THE SAME!)

 You see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny
 skies
 They come knocking at your door with this look in
 their eyes
 You've got one good trick and you're hanging on you're
 hanging on

 You're hanging on
 You're hanging on
