(Intro)
Fm Eb Db7 Cm7sus (2x)
(Verse)
When I [Fm]met him on a sidewalk
He was preaching to a mailbox
[Bbm]Down on 16th Avenue
And he [Db]told me he was Jesus
Sent from [Eb]Jupiter to free us
With a [Fm]bottle of tequila and one shoe
[Bbm]He raged about repentance
He [Csus]finished every [C]sentence
[Fm]With a promise that the end was [Bbmsus]close at hand
I [Gb]didn?t even try to [Csus]understa[C]nd
He left me [Fm]wide eyed [Eb2]in disbelief and disil[Db]lusion[CMajsus][CMaj]
I was [Fm]tongue tied, [Eb2]drawn by my con[Db]clusio[CMajsus]ns[CMaj]
[Bbm]So I turned and [Csus]walked [C]away
And [Fm]laughed at [Eb2]what he had to say[Bbm]
Then casually dismissed him as a fra[CMaj]ud[CMaj]
I [Gb]forgot he was created in the image of my God
(Intro)
When I [Fm]met her in a bookstore
She was browsing on the first floor
[Bbm]Through a yoga magazine
And she [Db]told me in her past life
She was [Eb]some plantation slave?s wife
She [Fm]had to figure out what that might mean
She [Bbm]believes the healing powers of her [Csus]crysta[C]ls
Can bring [Fm]balance and new purpose[Bbmsus] to her life
[Gb]Sounds nice[Csus]
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
[Bbm]Not so long ago, a man from Galilee[Fm]
Fed thousands with His bread[Eb] and His theology[Db]
And the truth He spoke[Bbm]
Quickly became the joke
Of [Csus]educated, self-inflated Pharisees like me
(Intro 2x)
And they were [Gm]wide eyed[F2] in disbelief and [Eb]disillusion[DMajsus][DMaj]
They were [Gm]tongue tied, [F2]drawn by their conc[Eb]lusions[DMajsus][DMaj]
Would [Cm]I have turned and [Dsus]walked a[D]way
And [Gm]laughed at [F2]what He [Eb]had to say[Cm2]
And casually dismissed Him as a [DMajsus]fraud
Una[Ab]ware that I was staring at the image of my God
