Cosmo Jarvis - Sure As Hell Not Jesus
------------------------------
Key of B with Capo 2, ear-transcribed on ukulele by Neil Killer.
------------------------------
A lot of the guitar chords in this song are hard to decipher; I always found
something to tweak in these chords after I took a break and came back. The
chord after Bm in the chorus is hard to hear, but it sounds like either an E
or an A. I went with E because it fits better with the A at the end of the
chorus and also follows the pattern of the solo towards the end. The bridge has
sort of a partial key change, and it's *very* difficult to hear the chords
clearly, but the progression I came up with sounds pretty much perfect when I
play it together with the song.
------------------------------
The song is played with a Capo 2, as seen in the "rehearsal" video on YouTube.
If you're not using a capo, hit the "Up 2 Half Steps" button. I like playing
it in the key of C (hit "Up 3 Half Steps") since it sounds best like that on
my ukulele.

[Capo 2]
VERSE 1:
HeDre I sit
If I didn't need nobody, I'd thank BmGod for it
E A (G# A)
There'd be nothing that'd stop me getting on with it
It'd be me and my Dbrain
And my Bmpain, and my Eshame
I Dguess I do
This carpark's only got one space and Bmit's for you
E A (G# A)
Alone can show an ugly face, so pull me through
To where I won't need a Dlight
To see at Bmnight
E (D)
Cos I'll be alright
CHORUS:
You're Esure as hell not Jesus, but you're sBmaving me E
Thank Bmyou very much Efor putting faBmith in me E
RemindBming me a light Ewas once so grBmeat to be E
Bm E A (Amaj7)
I'm glad I made a friend that doesn't pray for me
VERSE 2:
DHere I wait
For something bad and saddening to Bmdraw my way
E A (G# A)
I fight to give it everything and lose I may
But I still got you somewherDe
It's just upBmstairs
Maybe I Ecare
DGuess I am
No big and strong Goliath, I'm a Bmwandering man
E A (G# A)
And sometimes I get tired and I'm glad a hand
Comes and slaps me and theDn
It goes aBmgain
E (D)
I guess you're my friend
CHORUS:
You're Esure as hell not Jesus, but you're sBmaving me E
Thank Bmyou very much Efor putting faBmith in me E
RemindBming me a light Ewas once so grBmeat to be E
Bm E A (Amaj7)
I'm glad I made a friend that doesn't pray for me

If I Adon't behave next week
