Part of a concept album where I write a song from the perspective of one of the people in each chapter of the book of Mark.
Mark 10 (Rich Man)
Capo 3
Am G Fmaj7
I have done everything since my youth
Dm C G
To make sure I’m righteous in all that I do
Am G Fmaj7
Commandments I followed each day
Dm C G
God knows that with my whole heart I obey
Em Fmaj7
All things from which I refrain
G Am
Surely this path is not followed in vain?
Em Fmaj7
I must know whatever I’ve missed
Dm C G
To add the one thing that I crave to my list
Am G Fmaj7
Satisfied with the laws I have kept
Dm C G
He told me something I’d never suspect
Am G Fmaj7
I can’t give away all I own
Dm C G
I’ve come to wish that wouldn’t have known
Em Fmaj7
All things from which I refrain
G Am
Surely this path was not followed in vain?
Em Fmaj7
With all of the guilt I’ve dismissed
Dm C G
I’ll just have to add one more thing to my list

Leave no zong unturned. I would live to write a concept album.
