main riff- Played throughout 1st verse
main riff- Played throughout 2nd verse
riff2a riff2b
No chord C
If loving God was a crime, I'd be an outlaw
I would join the fight
They could not shut me down
G C (riff2a)
I would stand tall, for what I know is right
*Chorus*
Would you stand with me for the world to see
C G (riff2b)
When all is on the line
Would you be ashamed of Jesus name
If loving God was a crime
The schoolroom, I hear, teaches choices
To kids who cannot pray
And the unborn I fear, they have no voice
C (riff2a)
in politics today
*Repeat Chorus*
*Bridge*
Take a look around. What will tomorrow hold?
It's time to stand our ground.
We must be bold. We must be bold.
*Organ Solo*
If loving God was a crime, I'd be an outlaw.
G C (riff2a)
I would join the fight.
Will you stand with me for the world to see
C G (riff2b)
When all is on the line
Will you be ashamed of Jesus name
When loving God is a crime
When loving God is a crime (3x)
(when loving God is a crime)
When loving God is a crime I'll be an outlaw
When loving God is a crime (repeat and fade)
