[Em] [Bm] His [Em]pulpit's a corner on Nineteenth and Main
His [A]grip on the Gospel his one claim to fame [Em] He hurls fire and
brimstone at the cars passing by and he [A]offers salvation for the Savior on [Em]high.
[Bm] His [Em]khakis are tattered and he ain't bathed in weeks his [A]bout with the bottle
shows up on his [Em]cheeks. He looks like a scarecrow a sight to behold as [A]he works for
the [E]Shepherd bringin' [B7]lambs to the [E]fold. He [Bm]points to the [A]Bible he [E]holds in his hands
says, " I'm [A]proof that the Good[E] Lord can [F#m]save any man[A]."
CHORUS: Son it [E]ain't what you're drivin' or the [A]clothes that you [E]wear, material possessions
won't [A]matter up [Bb]there. And [E]someday in heaven when the angels all [A]sing these [E]rags
that I'm wearin' will be [Bb]fit for a [Bm]king.
(Second verse progression same as first)
Verse II:
He's fightin' the fever in spite of the chill, he pulls up his collar and he speaks God's will.
His body is weakened but his faith is still strong, for he's filled with conviction for the mission he's on.
He knows soon in heaven He'll be homeless no more, As his work will soon echo from that far distant shore.
