[D]
[G] [E]
[G] [C] Some [G]
say he was an outlaw
That he [C] roamed across [G] the land
With [D] a band of unschooled ruffians
[C] A few old fishermen
No [G] one knew just where he came from
Or exactly what he'd done
[D] But they said it must be something bad
[Dm] That kept him on [C] the run
[G] [C]
[G] [C] [G] Some say he was a poet
That he'd stand upon the hill
And [D] his voice could calm an angry crowd
[C] Or make the waves stand still
[G] That he spoke in many parables
[D] That few could understand
[D] But the people sat for hours
Just to [Dm] listen to [C] this man
[G]
[Em] [G] Some say he was a sorcerer
A man of mystery
He [D] could walk upon the water
He [C] could make a blind man see
[G] That he conjured wine at weddings
And [C] did tricks with fish [G] and bread
[D] That he talked of being born again
And [F] raised people [C] from the [G] dead
[E]
[G] [D]
[C]
[G] [Em]
[G] [D]
[C]
[G] [C]
[G] [C] Some say a politician
Who spoke [C] of [G] being free
He was [D] followed by the masses
On [C] the shores of Galilee
He [G] spoke out against corruption
And he bowed to no decree
And [D] they feared his strength and power
So they [F] nailed him to [C] a tree
[G]
[G] [D#]
[G] [C#]
[Am]
[G]
Some say he was the son of God
A man above all men
[D] But he came to be a servant
And [Dm] to set us free [C] from sin
And [G] that's who I believe he was
Cause that's who I believe
[D] And I think we should get ready
Cause [Dm] it's time for us [C] to [G] leave
[D] [Cm]
[G] [C#]
[G] [Am]
