Hello Saferide - I Was Jesus (2014)
Chords 9/2-2015 by Jon Malmin (jogusmal@hotmail.com)
Tuning: Standard E
It was difficult to put the chords over the lyrics in a truly satisfying way, since some of the lines
are so long and rapidly sung. I chose to put the lines together in a way that best conveys the song's
message, in my opinion. Listen to the song if you're unsure how it goes!
[Intro]
D D D D
D Em Bm G D D
D Em Bm G D D
[Verse 1]
It was the Dsecond day of spEmring and sunbBmeams made love to wiGndows in all the Dhouses
And I was JDesus and I decEmided to come down to eBmarth in the shape of a wGoman this tDime
And I was JDesus, and I went iEmnto the sea, and I took two fGishes, and I turned them to mDillions
A...And I took five Dloaves of bread, and fed a cEmountry with them, and I said: "Do you bGelieve me now?"
"Sorry", they sDaid, "We focused on your wAet white clothes as you bent over to pick up the fishes!"
And I was bDitter for a whEmile, but then deBmcided to go Gat it again D

[Verse 2]
And I was GDhandi and I went bEmack to earth in the shape of a wGoman this time
D...A..And the river DGanges it cleared my Emvision and I, well, I guess I was a wGoman again D
D...A..And I stGarted my quiet, friendly revolution and they sBmaid: "Oh, a quiet friendly woman, super rare"
And I tGried to convince them "it's not a personality, it's cBmhoice and a belief"
And "would you give me cGredit for it and please follow me"
And they said:Bm "Speak louder, we can't hear you when we're sGcreaming
you look nice now that you don't Aeat"
[Verse 3]
