Capo 2
[C] [D7] [G]
We've turned the[C] page For a[D7] new day has d[G]awned
And we've [Am7]rearrang[C]ed What is r[D7]ight and what's wr[G]ong
Somehow we've dri[F]fted So far from the tr[C]uth
That we can't get back h[D]ome And where are the vi[C]rtues
That once gave us li[G]ght And where are[Am7] the mo[C]rals
That governed our li[G]ves Someday w[Em]e all will aw[F]ake
And look bac[C]k just to find What we've lo[D]st
[G]We need to get back To the b[Bm7]asics of life
A heart that[C] is pure And a lo[D]ve that is blind
A f[G]aith that is Fervently gro[Bm7]unded in Christ
The ho[G]pe that endures for all ti[C]me
[Am7]These are the basics We need to g[F]et back
To the bas[C]ics of lif[G]e.....O[C]h oh
The newest r[C]age is to rea[D]son it o[G]ut And just [Am7]meditate[C]
You can overc[D]ome every d[G]oubt After all m[F]an is a god
They say G[C]od is no longer al[D]ive But I still[C] believe
In the old rugged cross[G] Oh I s[Am7]till beli[C]eve
there is hope for the lost[G] And I kn[Am]ow
the R[F]ock of all Ages Will s[C]tand
Through the changes of t[D]ime Through the changes of time[C][D]
We[Bb]'ve let the da[F]rkness I[G]nvade us too long
We've got to t[G7]urn the ti[F]de [C] Oh [Bb]we need the p[F]assion
That bur[G]ned long ago To come and [G7]open our e[F]yes[Dsus]
N[D]o room for co[Dsus]mpromise[D]
[G]We need to get back To the b[Bm7]asics of life
A he[C]art that is pure And a [D7]love that is [D]blind[E]
[A]We need to get back To the b[C#m7]asics of life
A h[D]eart that is pure And a lo[E7]ve that is bl[E]ind
A f[A]aith that Fervently g[C#m7]rounded in Christ
The h[A7]ope that endures for all t[D]ime[A]
[Bm7]These are the basics
We need to g[G]et back
To the b[D]asics of l[A]ife
[D]oh
To [G]the basics of l[A]ife 4x's
