(Verse)
Fm
When I met him on a sidewalk
He was preaching to a mailbox
Bbm
Down on 16th Avenue
C#
And he told me he was Jesus
Eb
Sent from Jupiter to free us
Fm
With a bottle of tequila and one shoe
Bbm
He raged about repentance
Csus4 C
He finished every sentence
Fm Bbmsus
With a promise that the end was close at hand
F# Csus4 C
I didn’t even try to understand
Fm Eb2 C# CMajsus C
He left me wide eyed in disbelief and disillusion
Fm Eb2 C# CMajsus C
I was tongue tied, drawn by my conclusions
Bbm Csus4 C
So I turned and walked away
Fm Eb2 Bbm
And laughed at what he had to say
C C
Then casually dismissed him as a fraud
F#
I forgot he was created in the image of my God
(Intro)
Fm
When I met her in a bookstore
She was browsing on the first floor
Bbm
Through a yoga magazine
C#
And she told me in her past life
Eb
She was some plantation slave’s wife
Fm
She had to figure out what that might mean
Bbm Csus4 C
She believes the healing powers of her crystals
Fm Bbmsus
Can bring balance and new purpose to her life
F# Csus4
Sounds nice
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Bbm Fm
Not so long ago, a man from Galilee
Eb C#
Fed thousands with His bread and His theology
Bbm
And the truth He spoke
Quickly became the joke
Csus4
Of educated, self-inflated Pharisees like me
(Intro 2x)

And they were wide eyed in disbelief and disillusion
Gm F2 Eb DMajsus D
They were tongue tied, drawn by their conclusions
Cm Dsus4 D
Would I have turned and walked away
Gm F2 Eb Cm2
And laughed at what He had to say
DMajsus
And casually dismissed Him as a fraud

Unaware that I was staring at the image of my God
