[Intro]
Em G C G D
[Verse 1]
G Em7
That bar of chocolate… fit right in my pocket
C G D
Was the only thing that I’d ever stole
G Em7
And I thought I was home free… but I guess momma knows me
C G D
The guilt on my face must have shown…
Am7 C
Momma bailed me out… two quarters and a dime
Am7 D
But when daddy got home that night…
[Chorus 1]
C G
I paid for it… that shame I wore it
Am7 D
And that cross I bore it, but it… didn’t break me down
C G
And I’ve learned from it… and I’ve over come it…
Am7 D
And I thought I won it… I can live with me now.
C G D C G D
‘Cause I’ve paid for it… Yes I paid for it
[Verse 2]
G Em7
We weren’t old enough… we weren’t even in love
C G D
That night we got carried away
G Em7
Then one morning she called and… said we need to talk
C G D
There’s a big decision… that we need to make
Am7 C
We both agreed… to make it disappear
Am7 D
Momma gave us some money… but over the years
[Chorus 2]
C G
I paid for it… that shame I wore it
Am7 D
And that cross I bore it, but it… didn’t break me down
C G
And I’ve learned from it… and I’ve over come it…
Am7 D
And I thought I won it… I can live with me now.
C G D C G
‘Cause I’ve paid for it… Yes I paid for it
[Bridge]
Am7 G
And one night in desperation… I knew I was lost
Am7 G
I wanted salvation… but I didn’t know the cost
Am7 C
I fell to my knees and… for the first time I prayed
G D D*
Deep in my soul… I know I heard him saaay…
[Chorus 3]
C* G*
I paid for it… that shame I wore it
Am7* D
That cross I bore it, but death… couldn’t break me down
C G
‘Cause I rose above it… and I’ve over come it…
Am7 D
And that fight I won it… So you can live with me now.
C G D C G D
I’ve paid for it… yes, I’ve paid for it…
C* G
He paidddd for it…
* Strum & Pause
