Lyrics posted with express permission from Eli

Intro: G     C    Em    C

          G
I've been quick to point a finger
   C
At things I find outrageous
        Em
Well, I wonder who I'll point at
       C
When I read my life on pages
          Em
When I've played my final number
   C
It really won't take long
       D            C         G
To realize I sang a hypocrite song

Chorus:
          C              G
Oh ly-dee-dye, oh ly-dee-dee
            Em
I thank the Lord that there's a Heaven
        C               D
Full of hypocrites like me
            G
So tell the angels to get ready
       C
Cuz it may not be too long
        D                C         G
Until I come and sing my hypocrite song

I preach about redemption
As I look you in the face
Then I'm convinced I must be dyin'
But it's just somethin' that I ate
But it's Jesus who gives mercy
To make a weak man strong
So he can stand and sing
His hypocrite song

Repeat Chorus

Solo over:
G   C  (2x)
Em  C
D   C   G

I can't wait to see my Savior
And look Him in the face
Shake His hand and plainly thank Him
For forgiving my mistakes
And for helping me remember
That even when I'm right I'm wrong
Then we'll rejoice and sing this hypocrite song

Repeat Chorus 2x
