                                    CHe (x32010@1)came into the shop and looked me straight between the eyes
    D (xx0232@1)                               CAnd (x32010@1)said, "You know I'm Jesus", and I must have looked surprised
           D (xx0232@1)                           CBecause (x32010@1)he said, "Please don't be hasty, no-one understands
         G (320003@1)                                          CBut (x32010@1)I've got a way to prove it", and he lifted up his hands
           G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)            DHe (xx0232@1)was the man who called himself Jesus


                                      CFor (x32010@1)a minute I was speechless, then I looked into his face
        D (xx0232@1)                              CWith (x32010@1)sufficient lines of sadness for the total human race
      D (xx0232@1)                                CAnd (x32010@1)I said, "You must be joking", but he slowly shook his head
    G (320003@1)                                                CAnd (x32010@1)said "That's what they all say, I might as well be dead."
           G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)            DHe (xx0232@1)was the man who called himself Jesus


                                    CHe (x32010@1)asked me if I knew a place where he could start to preach
      D (xx0232@1)                         CAnd (x32010@1)I said "Well try a church, or maybe Brighton Beach"
          D (xx0232@1)                          CAnd (x32010@1)I was trying to be serious, but he didn't seem impressed
   G (320003@1)                                                  CHe (x32010@1)said, "You think I'm crazy, you're just like all the rest."
           G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)            DHe (xx0232@1)was the man who called himself Jesus


                                       CI (x32010@1)was really quite embarrassed, he was looking so sincere
     D (xx0232@1)                                     CSo (x32010@1)I said, "I close the shop soon, won't you come and have a beer?"
        D (xx0232@1)                            CThen (x32010@1)he asked me if I meant it, and he gave a funny smile
    G (320003@1)                                             CAnd (x32010@1)said he'd rather like that, and he hung around awhile
           G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)            DHe (xx0232@1)was the man who called himself Jesus


                             COn (x32010@1)the way he stopped to pat little children's heads
    D (xx0232@1)                                            CAnd (x32010@1)taught them one line prayers to say, when they went off to their beds
    D (xx0232@1)                                  CBut (x32010@1)mostly they were frightened and they looked at him wide-eyed
            G (320003@1)                                    CAnd (x32010@1)when he said his name was Jesus, one girl even cried
           G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)            DHe (xx0232@1)was the man who called himself Jesus


                                CIn (x32010@1)the pub I asked him, if he'd tried to see the Pope
       D (xx0232@1)                                            CAnd (x32010@1)he said although he'd thought about it, there was really not a hope
        D (xx0232@1)                                CThen (x32010@1)he said he thought he'd better go, he had some work to do
   G (320003@1)                                          CHe (x32010@1)said he'd come and see me in about a week or two
           G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)            DHe (xx0232@1)was the man who called himself Jesus


                          CWell (x32010@1)after he had gone, I thought of what he'd said
    D (xx0232@1)                              CAnd (x32010@1)all his funny actions, they kept running through my head
    D (xx0232@1)                              CAnd (x32010@1)when I felt my mind was drowning in a sea of mud
   G (320003@1)                                               CIt (x32010@1)seemed his pint of beer had turned into a pint of blood
           G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)            DHe (xx0232@1)was the man who called himself Jesus
           G (320003@1)     C (x32010@1)            DHe (xx0232@1)was the man who called himself Jesus
