Jesus  Try  and  Save  Me


   F#
My mother went to heaven, my father got remarried.
F#
My sister still looks pretty, she tells me not to worry.
   B
My brother plays the guitar and man he looks wounded.
F#
Me, I'm still twisted and strung out on the bottle.
C#
Jesus, try and save me. Jesus, try and save me.
                             F#
Jesus, try and save me from myself!

F#
Well I guess I should look before I leap.

See I am trying hard to get some sleep.
       B                                                  F#
I went looking for the Devil, he said you have to wait in line.

I went out walking into a liquor store,

my girlfriend collapsed upon the floor.
         B                                         F#
Have you come here for forgiveness or to raise the dead.
   C#
Oh Jesus, try and save me.
                             F#
Jesus, try and save me from myself!

instrumental:- F# F# B F# C# B F#

F#
I am not ready for the life of love.

I am not ready for the Lord above.
  B                                           F#
I counted all my blessings and they came back none.

I'm going under, sinking low.

I feel dead inside honey, couldn't you tell?
         B                                                      F#
It's the beginning of the end of the beginning of the end of my time.
   C#
Oh Jesus, try and save me. Jesus, try and save me.

Jesus, try and save me!
 
        F#
Well my mother went to heaven, my father got remarried.

My sister still looks pretty, tells me not to worry.
C#
Jesus, try and save me. Jesus, try and save me.
                              F#
Jesus, try and save me from myself.


F# = 2 4 4 3 2 2   B = 2 2 4 4 4 2   C# = 4 4 6 6 6 4

I like to use the C# as a C#7#9 = 0 4 3 4 5 0  -  0 4 3 4 2 0  turnaround. Enjoy!
