[G] Some say he was an outlaw, [C] that he roamed [G] across the land
[D] With a band of unschooled [C] ruffians and a few old fishermen
[G] No one knew just where he came from or exactly what he'd done
[D] But they said it must be something [Dm] bad that kept [C] him on the run
[G] _ _ _ [C] _ [G] _ _ [C] _
[G] Some say he was a poet, that he'd stand upon the hill
[D] And his voice could calm an angry [C] crowd or make the waves stand still
[G] That he spoke in many parables that few could understand
[D] But the people sat for hours [G] just to listen [C] to this man
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ [G]
Some say he was a sorcerer, a man of mystery
[D] He could walk upon the water, [C] he could make a blind man see
[G] That he conjured wine at weddings and did tricks with fish and bread
[D] That he talked of being born [F] again and raised [C] people from the [G] dead _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Some say he was a politician, that he spoke of being free
[D] He was followed by the masses [C] on the shores of Galilee
[G] He spoke out against corruption and he bowed to no decree
[D] And they feared his strength and power [Dm] so they nailed him [C] to a [G] tree _ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] Some _ [G] _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
say he was the son of God, a man above all men
[D] But he came to be a servant [Dm] and to set us [C] free from sin
_ _ [G] And that's who I believe he was, cause that's who I believe
And I think [D] we should get ready [Dm] cause it's time [C] for us to _ [G] leave _ _ _
