_ So, so, so, so. _
_ [A] _ _ [Em] _ [E] And there I was.
I woke up and I was kind of standing. _ _ _ _
I was kind of someplace _ out where the, out where the interstates turn to dirt.
Out past the fire roads.
Out past Route 140. _ _ _ _
_ Down, down where the train trestles go over the graveyard.
Back behind the dynamo at the side of Route 140. _
Yeah, I'm still out by Otahe Lakes Road.
_ [Em] _
Underneath [E] the water tower, I got a [A] thousand wah, wah, [E] wah, wah, wah, wah, [E] power. _ _
Yeah, [Em] I'm feeling fine.
And Jesus walked up to me and he says, Mojo?
_ _ _ Mojo, I'm going to take you to someplace you need to be.
And I said, _ take me, Jesus.
Jesus [N] took me. _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ There we were.
I looked around.
I looked around, and all I saw was couches.
Everywhere I looked, I saw couches.
Not the kind you want to sit on, but the kind you want to _ _ sleep
on, you know?
And there was like these bonfires and big cauldrons
on top of them with generic yellow label, top ramen,
just boiling away.
_ Boiling [E] away, away, away.
It was going everywhere.
And the trees had these kind of beer taps on them.
And out of it was coming this strange mixture of food,
barn, gin, and Mountain [Em] Dew.
[A] And I said, I [E] love, love, love, love, love, love you.
[A] Oh, yeah.
I was feeling so fine, so fine.
I'm about to go out of my mind.
I saw the entire Robert Johnson, John Lee, Hooker, Muddy Waters
record collection [E] stretched before me
in a brand new stereo.
I got 1,000 watts of power.
I got a new car.
It's got a second gear.
And I'm feeling fine.
I ain't got to work no day job no more,
because that's not my life.
That's not my wife.
I'm going to cut it out [Em] with a [A] knife.
[E] _ _ So I asked Jesus, I said, man, like, where am I? _ _ _ _
Jesus kind of scratched his chin.
And _ he hadn't shaved in a while.
And he said, mojo? _ _
Mojo?
_ I said, am I at the Big Rock Candy Mountain?
He said, no.
_ I said, am I in paradise?
He said, no.
I said, is this like the upstairs, you know, heaven?
He said, no.
[E]
Jesus looked up in the sky.
And there was a big white thing up in the sky.
And there were these kind of lines going across.
And the hair on the back of my neck stood up.
And Jesus said, I feel fine, because, _ _ _ because,
because I'm down [A] _ by the power [Em] line.
_ _ That's why I feel so [E] _
fine.
[E] _ That's why I'm going my mind.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
_ I said, I'm down, down, down, [A] down, down by the power [B] line.
I feel so, feel so, feel so, feel so [E] down by the power line.
I [A] feel, feel, feel so [B] fine.
Ain't that right, [E] skid?
Oh, yeah.
I said, I'm down [A] _
by the power _ [E] line. _ _
I'm in too well [E] or right, OK?
_ _ [A]
It's just a simple mind.
I come in and I'm going in [A] and I'm going up.
And I'm going to [E] hit a mountain down, down, down
by the [E] power line.
_ _ [A] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ [E] _ _ Let's go, skid.
