Chords for Jesus It's Me Again - Dick Damron

[Em] _ _ We're gonna do this especially for [E] Irene and especially in memory [C] of Dennis.
This is [E] a gospel song that we wrote a few years ago and [Gm] was [G#m] the number one
[D#] record and song of the year in [F#] Canada for us in 1983.
[G#] It's been recorded by
George Hamilton [N] IV and Charlie Pride and the Statler brothers, Carol Baker and
I think 22 other artists have recorded [B] this.
It's become a [Am] little bit of a _
_ [G] _ [A] _ _ _ _ [Em] classic country gospel song and we're gonna do this especially [N] for Irene
tonight and [F#] it's one called [A] Jesus Hits Me Again.
_ [E] _ _ [D] [A] Lately _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
Lord, I almost feel [A] like dying.
[D] _
[A] _ _ _ I wake up like a child, good [E] night. _ _
_ _ _ [A] Sometimes Lord, [D] _
just can't keep [A] from crying.
I _
_ _ _ [Dm] can't find [A] the strength [E] to [A] carry [C#m] [D] on.
_ [A] _ _
[N] Jesus hits [A] me [Bm] [Em] again.
[D] _ _
I'm on [A] my knees [Bm] [Em] again, [D] _ _
asking [A] you please again. _ _
Reach out [Bm] your hand, _ _ [E] _ _
[Bm] [Cm] Jesus [A] hits me [D] again.
[Em] _ [D] _ _
Down on [A] my knees [F#m] [Em] again, [D] _ _
begging [A] you please again.
[E] _ _ [B]
Reach out [A] your hand, _ _ _ Jesus hits me.
[D] _ [C#] _ [D] _ _
I'm on [A] my _ [D] _ [A] _ [D] _
knees again, asking you [A] please.
_ _ [G#] _ [Em] _ _
Reach out [A] your hand. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ From time to time, [G] _ [D] I've tried to find [A] a reason. _ _ _ _
[F#m] _ [A] And I've talked to you a time or two [Bm] before.
[E] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ But this time Lord, [F] _ [D] _ _
it's more than [A] I can handle. _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] And I know I just can't [A] take it [E] _ _ [A] anymore. _ _ _ _
Jesus hits me [A] again.
[D] _ _
_ [A] I'm on my knees [G] again, [D] _ _
_ [A] asking you please [F#m] [A] again.
Reach [E] out [Bm] your hand, _ _ [E] _
[Bm] Jesus [A] hits me [Bm] again.
[Em] _ [D] _
_ Down on [A] my knees [G] [Em] again, [D] _
_ asking [F#m] you please [E] again. _
_ [A] Reach out your hand, _ _ [D] _
_ [G] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ it's [A] me. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ [E] _ Especially for Irene and _ _ memory of the big [D] D.
Here's one we're going to take you for a ride on.
