The Byrds  The Christian Life   written by Charlie & Ira Louvin 
           
D          A            D

My buddies tell me that I should have waited 
D            A         E              A
They say I'm missing a whole world of fun 
D           A             D           G
But I still love them and I sing with pride 
   D       A         D 
I like the Christian life 
  A                         G              D
I won't lose a friend while heeding  God's call 
    A                    G            A
For what is a friend who wants you to fall 
D           A            D           G
Others find pleasures in things I despise 
  D        A         D
I like the Christian life

SOLO

D          A             D 
My buddies shun me since I turned to Jesus 
             A         E              A
They say I'm missing a whole world of fun 
D          A        D           G
I live without them walking the line
   D       A         D
I like the Christian life
  A                         G              D
I won't lose a friend while heeding  God's call 
     A                   G            A
For what is a friend who wants you to fall 
D           A            D            G
Others find pleasures in things I despise 
  D        A         D
I like the Christian life
