Chorus: 
E5                   (w/u)      A5           E5 
George Jones and Jesus are two heroes of mine 
E5      A5     E5                         B5 
One is only human and the other one divine 
         E5        A5       E5             A5              E5 
When I could not find a friend I found out that I had two 
A5                 E5     B5           E5 
George Jones and Jesus, pulled me through 
 

E5 
When a man is on the bottle  
    A5               E5 
He may not cry for help 
E5 
But he needs to know he's not alone  
                B5 
In hell all by himself 
       E5         A5          E5 
Those songs old George was singing 
      A5                 E5 
They somehow eased the hurt 
     A5             E5 
And Jesus did not turn me out 
        B5                E5 
When a bar room was my church

        F#5 
Now the possum ain't no savior 
       B5                F#5 
But he never claimed to be 
     F#5 
And Jesus hung out with a crowd 
                   C#5 
Of troubled souls like me 
               F#5      B5           F#5 
Now you can't find a George Jones classic 
      B5                 F#5 
In a big black book of hymns 
         B5                 F#5 
But I'm living proof that Jesus saves 
 C#5                      F#5 
In a smokey place like this
