Wide Eyed

Tom: Fm
Intro: (Fm Eb C#7 Cm7sus) 2x

(Verse)
       Fm 
When I met him on a sidewalk
He was preaching to a mailbox
Bbm
Down on 16th Avenue
       C#  
And he told me he was Jesus
          Eb 
Sent from Jupiter to free us
       Fm
With a bottle of tequila and one shoe
Bbm
He raged about repentance
   C4           C 
He finished every sentence
Fm                              Bbmsus
With a promise that the end was close at hand
  F#                 C4    C 
I didn’t even try to understand

           Fm        Eb2                   C#    CMajsus C
He left me wide eyed in disbelief and disillusion
      Fm           Eb2            C#    CMajsus C
I was tongue tied, drawn by my conclusions
Bbm             C4   C 
So I turned and walked away
    Fm         Eb2                   Bbm
And laughed at what he had to say
                                    C C
Then casually dismissed him as a fraud
  F# 
I forgot he was created in the image of my God

(Intro)

       Fm
When I met her in a bookstore
She was browsing on the first floor
Bbm
Through a yoga magazine
        C#          
And she told me in her past life
        Eb
She was some plantation slave’s wife
    Fm
She had to figure out what that might mean
    Bbm                                C4  C  
She believes the healing powers of her crystals
          Fm                     Bbmsus 
Can bring balance and new purpose to her life
F#         C4
Sounds nice

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Bbm                                    Fm
Not so long ago, a man from Galilee
                            Eb                  C#
Fed thousands with His bread and His theology
                       Bbm
And the truth He spoke
Quickly became the joke
   C4
Of educated, self-inflated Pharisees like me
(Intro 2x)

              Gm       F9                Eb         DMajsus D
And they were wide eyed in disbelief and disillusion
          Gm           F9                 Eb        DMajsus D 
They were tongue tied, drawn by their conclusions
      Cm                D4    D 
Would I have turned and walked away
    Gm         F9      Eb           Cm9
And laughed at what He had to say
                                DMajsus
And casually dismissed Him as a fraud
   Ab
Unaware that I was staring at the image of my God

(Outro)
Gm F9 Eb DMajsus D 5x
