Vs.1

E                     D
He Came to town on an old freight train,
   A                  E
He jumped off in the pouring rain.
E                    D
Everybody said he's insane,
        A                  Asus4
Just a low down no account hobo.

E                           D
He make his bed beneath the country bridge,
    A                  E
The city folks said hey that's not his.
E                              D
They signed a petition they're gonna get rid,
        A                   Asus4
Of that low down, no count white trash.


Chorus:

A                   D         A
What if Jesus comes back like that,
      E                      D    E
On an old freight train in a hobo hat.
A                      D        A
Will we, let him in or turn our back.
E                     D-A     E
What if Jesus comes back like that,
E                      D-A       E
Oh what if Jesus comes back like that.

Nobody said life is fair,
