My [D] mind is clearer now. _ _
_ _ [Dm] At last, all too well, I can see where we all [D] soon will be. _
_ _ _ _ If you strip away _ _ the myth _ from the man, you will see where we all soon will be.
_ _ _ _ _ Jesus! _
_ _ _ _ It's not a true belief, the things they say of you.
You really do believe [G] this talk of God is [D] true. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ And all the good you've done will soon get swept away.
You've begun to matter more than the [Dm] things you say. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
Listen, Jesus, I don't like what I see. _
_ I ask is that [A] you listen to me.
[Bb] And remember, [C] I've been your right-hand [F] man all along.
[A] _ _ You [Dm] have set them all on fire.
[Bb] _ _ They think [F] they've found a new Messiah.
_ _ And [Dm] they'll hurt you when they find [Bb] they're wrong. _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ I [F] remember when this whole thing began.
[Dm] No talk of God, [G] then we called you a man.
[Bb] _ And believe me, [C] my admiration [F] for you hasn't [A] died.
_ But [D] every word you say [Bb] today is [F] twisted round some other way.
_ [Dm] _ And they'll hurt you [A] if they think [Bb] you've lied.
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ [F] Nazareth, your famous [Gm] son, should have stayed a great unknown,
like his [A] father carving with heat of [Dm] May.
Good tables, [F] chairs, and oaken [Gm] chests would have [D] suited Jesus best.
He'd [A] have carved nobody hot, no one [Dm] _ alarmed.
So [F] Jesus, do you care for your race?
_ [Dm] Don't you see we [G] must keep in our [Bb] place?
We are [C] occupied, have you forgotten [F] how _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [Dm] we're heightened by the [Bb] crowd?
_ For [F] we are getting much [Dm] too loud.
_ _ And they'll crush us if we go [Bb] too far.
[Dm] Yes, we go. _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _

_ [A] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
[F] To the warning I give, [Dm] _ please remember [G] that I want us to live.
[Bb] _ But it's sad to [C] see our tongues is [F] weakening.
We don't know _
[A] _ _ _ [Dm] all your followers of life.
[Bb] _ _ _ [F] Too much heaven on their minds.
_ _ [D] It was beautiful, but now [Bb] it's sour.
_ [Dm] Yes, it's all _
[Bb] God's work, _ [D] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Dm] Jesus. _
[Bb] It's all _ _ [Dm] God's work. _
Listen, Jesus, to [Dm] the warning.
_ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] Come on, come on, listen. _
