Author/Artist: DC Talk Title: Jesus Freak Album: Jesus Freak Tabbed by: Daniel “Pastor of Muppets” Huber (Lyrics lifted from aXman’s tab) #-------------------------------------PLEASE NOTE------------------------------# Notes: This is an update (fix) of Chorded Version 6 Effects I use: -I use a Digitech GNX1 -Acoustic for intro -Warm clean for verse -Metallica distortion for everything else (DC Talk just uses clean and distortion) -I would recommended 2 guitarists for this song if playing live. -Listen carefully to the song. You will here a difference from main riff and chorus that is why I titled them differently [Intro] F G# D# c What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus freak

FI don’t mean toG# hide D#it D C [Bridge] (Use natural harmonics) People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger That my best friend was born in a manger People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger That my best friend was born in a manger
