I Met Jesus In A Bar
Jim Lauderdale

Chorus

G                Am
I met Jesus in a bar
D                         G
  I guess you just can't fall too far
                             Am
I was pourin' whiskey in an empty heart
C                       G 
  When I met Jesus in a bar

G                                                             Am
Man or angel, son of God he did not tell me who he was, but I knew
D                                                                  G
In that least expected place I saw heaven in His face and couldn't move
                                                     G7
We sat there for hours, I could feel His grace and power 
        C                          Am
And I said things I'd never told a soul
D                                                                  G
I asked for forgiveness, he said I've already done this don't you know?

Repeat Chorus

G                Am
I met Jesus in a bar
D                         G
  I guess you just can't fall too far
                             Am
I was pourin' whiskey in an empty heart
D                       C 
  When I met Jesus in a bar

Insturmental: Am-C-G

G                                                           Am
I started cryin' in my hands when I looked up again, He was gone
 D
Then I walked the whole way home for the first time knowin' 
            G
I was not alone
                                                    G7
Some meet Him on the highway, some meet him on a Sunday 
             C          Am
on the back row of the church
D                                                             G 
I can only tell you my way was in a place where people go to hurt

Repeat Chorus

G                Am
I met Jesus in a bar
D                         G
  I guess you just can't fall too far
                             Am
I was pourin' whiskey in an empty heart
D                       G 
  When I met Jesus in a bar

                            Am  Bm  C
I was pourin' whiskey in an empty heart
D                       G 
  When I met Jesus in a bar
