Who Makes the Rules

Steven Curtis Chapman

A(1)                            G       D 
Well, I've been watching us very close, 
A(2)    A(1)                                    G                  D 
And I guess the one thing that's been bothering me the most, 
     A(2)                                       G               D       A (1)G D G 
Is when I see us playing by the same rules that the world is using ? Yeh ? heh! 
A(1)                                    G               D        
Well, I've been listening to the things that we say, 
A(2)    A(1)                                G              D 
And I, I hear us mention words like fortune and fame, 
A(2)    A(1)                             G                 D            E 
And it makes me wonder if we're sure about the side we're choosing. 
 
Yeah, that's why I'm asking you 
A                    D           A 
Who makes the rules for me and you, 
  Who makes the rules?. 
                   D/F# G                               D  
When it's wrong or right is it black and white? 
A                   D           A 
Who makes the rules for me and you; 
  Who makes the rules?.  
                        D/F#            G                                 D  
It's our life at stake so we better know who makes the rules. 
A(1)                              G          D 
When I see people just like you and me, 
A(2)         A(1)                                 G         D 
Trying to live out the pictures they see on TV; 
 A(2)                                     G                     D A(1)  G D G 
Gotta have a new car, new clothes, new love when they get tired of trying. 
A(1)                                  G         D        
But, I've been reading 'bout a different way, 
A(2)       A(1)                         G               D 
Talking 'bout dying to live and losing to gain; 
A(2)            A(1)                           G                           D    E 
Seems like somebody's telling us the truth and somebody's lying. 
 
Hey and I wanna know who ? So tell me 
 
TO THE Chorus 
 
BRIDGE 
E                            D  A   D 
Two voices are calling out to you; 
E                                    D  A        D 
You're serving the one you're listening to, 
       E                D 
So, tell me who, somebody tell me who. 
 
A                    D           A 
Who makes the rules for me and you, 
  Who makes the rules?. 
                   D/F# G                               D  
When it's wrong or right is it black and white? 
A                   D           A 
Who makes the rules for me and you; 
  Who makes the rules?. 
                        D/F#            G                                 D  
It's our life at stake so we better let Jesus make the rules.  Come on! 
A                    D           A 
Who makes the rules for me and you, 
  Who makes the rules?. 
                        D/F#            G                                 D  
It's our life at stake so we better know who makes the rules.   
A                   D           A 
Who makes the rules for me and you; 
  Who makes the rules?. 
                        D/F#            G                                 D  
It's our life at stake so we better let Jesus make the rules.   
 
Yeh ? heh ? heh 
 
Tell me, tell me, Who makes the rules - Yeh ? heh 
 
Who makes the rules ? Yeh - heh
