Gods Own Fool Chords

(ver. 1)
Michael Card
[VERSE 1]

     C                      G         C
It seems I've imagined Him all of my life
         F        C          G
As the wisest of all of mankind
        F           C         G         Am G-F
But if God's holy wisdom is foolish to man
                    Gsus-G      C
He must have seemed out of His mind
     F         C     G          C
For even His family said He was mad
          F              C         Gsus-G
And the priest said, "A demon's to blame,"
    F           C           G           Am  G-F
So God in the form of this angry young man
                      Gsus-G     C     F
Could not have seemed perfectly sane

[CHORUS]

     F           C           G              C
When we in our foolishness thought we were wise
Am                         F       
He played the fool and He opened our eyes
C                F         G              Am
When we in our weakness believed we were strong
             F         G            C       F
He became helpless to show we were wrong
    F       C     G         C
And so we follow God's own fool
      F        C         Gsus-G
For only the foolish can tell
   F         C - G - Am  G-F
Believe the unbelievable
              Gsus-G    C
And come be a fool as well

[VERSE 2]

    C                         G           C
So come lose your life for a carpenter's Son
       F          C          G
For a madman who died for a dream
        F              C               G       Am G-F
Then you'll have the faith His first followers had
             Gsus-G      C
And you'll feel the weight of the beam
     F         C     G          C
So surrender the hunger to say you must know
          F              C         Gsus-G
And the courage to say I believe
    F           C           G           Am  G-F
Let the power of paradox open your eyes
                      Gsus-G     C     F
And blind those who say they can see

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]

    F       C     G         C
And so we follow God's own fool
      F        C         Gsus-G
For only the foolish can tell
   F         C - G - Am  G-F
Believe the unbelievable
              Gsus-G    C
And come be a fool as well
