Tom Waits - Chocolate Jesus chords
Start Jamming...
I [Ebm]
[Abm] [B]
don't go to church on Sunday, don't get on my [Abm] knees to pray, don't memorize the books
[B] of the Bible, got my own special way.
I know Jesus loves me, maybe just a little bit more.
[E] I fall down on my knees every [B] Sunday, at the rail police candy store.
Well, I've got to be a chocolate Jesus, makes me feel good inside.
Got to be a chocolate Jesus, keep me [Eb] satisfied.
[B] Don't want no apples, apples, don't want no [Abm] almond joys.
[E] There ain't [B] nothing better, [Bbm] [Bb] suitable for this boy.
[B] Well, that's the only thing that can pick me up, it's better than a cup of gold.
It's the only chocolate Jesus, to satisfy my soul.
[Bb]
[Bbm] [Gb] [Ebm] When the weather gets rough and it's whiskey in the shade, best [Bb] to wrap your [B] Savior up in [F] cellophane.
It flows like the big money, but that's okay, [E] pour more ice cream for a nice [Eb] profit.
Well, it's got to be a [Ebm] chocolate [D] Jesus, good enough for [Abm] me.
Got to [Gb] be a chocolate Jesus, [B] it's good enough for [Eb] me.
Got to be a chocolate Jesus, makes me feel so good [B] inside.
[Ab] Got to be a [B] chocolate Jesus, keep me [G] satisfied.
