Intro: E-B-E 
 
E 
There are many people who will say they're Christians 
                                      F      B 
And they live like Christians on the Sabbath day 
           E 
But come Monday morning, til the coming Sunday 
                                    B         E  
They will fight their neighbor all along the way 
 
Chorus 
E             B    E 
Oh you don't love God, if you don't love your neighbor 
         B                        E 
If you gossip about him, if you never have mercy 
 
If he gets into trouble, and you don't try to help him 
           B               E                B          E 
Then you don't love your neighbor, and you don't love God

If you say you love him while you hate your neighbor 
                                        B      E
