         Roll on up - for my price is down 

         Come on in - for the best in town

         Take your pick of the finest wine 
          Bb5 
         Lay your bets on this bird of mine

         Hurry how while stocks still last 
 
Jesus:   My temple should be a house of prayer------   But you 

have made it a den of thieves 

         Get out !  GET OUT !

            My time          is almost through 
             Db5             Db5 
            Little left to do ... 
          Ab5      Ab5        Db5 
            After all I've tried for three years 
             F5             F5  F5  Bb5   ... 
            Seems like thirty, seems like thirty ... 
 
Crowd:   See my eyes I can hardly see 
------   See me stand I can hardly work 
         I believe you can make me whole 
         See my tongue I can hardly talk 
         See my skin I'm a mess of blood 
         See my legs I can hardly stand 
         I believe you can make me well 
         See my purse I'm a poor man 
         Will you touch will you mend me Christ 
         Will you touch will you heal me Christ 
         Will you kiss you can cure me Christ 
         Won't you kiss won't you pay me Christ 
 
Jesus:   There's too many of you - don't push me 
------   There's too little of me - don't, stop crowd me 
                                Heal yourselves !
