This is Flatfoot 56's song from Jungle of the Midwest Sea.
A great song and super easy to play.
Some good lyrics if you like gospel.
Enjoy, should be close to perfect; even added the mandolin part for an interlude.
Chords are basic G, Cadd9, and Dsus4 which can be played as regular D.
Introduction (Played quietly on the track)
G Dsus4
Now it's the same old story, I was young,
Cadd9 G Dsus4
I was naive, and I was dumb.
G Dsus4
My pops said stand, But then I ran
Cadd9 G Dsus4
Into the trap of, Satan's plan.
G Dsus4
And the dog that spread those lies
Cadd9 G Dsus4
And with those lies I ran.
G Dsus4
Just like the water reflects the face,
Cadd9 G Dsus4
So the heart reflects the man.
(Full volume)
G Dsus4
I was a wreck, doped up and drugged.
Cadd9 G Dsus4
Against my chains I, I would have tugged.
G Dsus4
And then he saved me, called me his one.
Cadd9 G Dsus4
And to the father, I became a son.
G Dsus4
And the dog that spread those lies,
Cadd9 G Dsus4
And with those lies I ran.
G Dsus4
Just like the water reflects the face,
Cadd9 G Dsus4
So the heart reflects the man.

G Dsus4 Cadd9 G Dsus4
And On that hill upon a tree hung a man who, who died for me.
G Dsus4 Cadd9 G Dsus4
And As he hung there about to die, I saw the water pour from his side.
(Regular)
G Dsus4
He said "My son, your sins are vast,
Cadd9 G Dsus4
But they are gone now, thrown to the past.
G Dsus4
Walk with me now boy, through fields of green,
Cadd9 G Dsus4
In this pool of water your face I've seen."

So the heart reflects the man.
