Man of God Eliza Gilkyson
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: Am D C (2x)
Well, the [Am]cowboy came from out of the west
With his [D]snakeskin boots and his [C]bullet proof vest
[Am]Gang of goons and his big war chest
[E7]Fortunate son, he was [D]doubly blessed
[D7]Corporate cronies and the chiefs of staff
Bowing to the image of the [Am]golden [Am7]calf
[D]Starting up wars in the name of god's son
Gonna [E7]blow us all the way to kingdom come
CHORUS:
[Am]Man of god, man of god
[D]That ain't the teachings of a [C]man of god
[Am]Man of god, man of god
[D]That ain't the preachings of a [C]man of god[Am] [D] [C]
Coa[Am]lition of the fearful and the judgmental
Pa[D]tricians, politicians, and the [C]fundamentalists
You [Am]never have to tell them how the money's spent
You [E7]never have to tell them where their [D]freedom went
[D7]Homophobes in the high command
Waiting for the rapture like it's [Am]Disney[Am7]land
[D]Hide all the bodies from out of view
[E7]Channel all the treasure to the chosen few
CHORUS:
[Am]Man of god, man of god
[D]That ain't the teachings of a [C]man of god
[Am]Man of god, man of god
[D]That ain't the preachings of a [C]man of god[Am]
BRIDGE:
[D]If I could, I surely would
Stand on the rock where [Am]Moses stood
[D]Look out people, now we're gonna get fleeced
By a [E]wolf masquerading as a man of pea[Am]ce
INSTRUMENTAL: D C Am E7 D Am D E
[Am]Jesus said, blessed are the meek
[D]Jesus said, you gotta [C]turn the other cheek
[Am]Jesus said, help the poor and the weak
[E7]If he lived today, he'd be a [D]liberal freak
[D7]All the money changers would be out on the street
Weeping and wailing and [Am]gnashing their [Am7]teeth
[D]Me, I'm a-waiting on the reckoning day
When the [E7]whole world gonna rise up and say...
CHORUS:
[Am]Man of god, man of god
[D]That ain't the teachings of a [C]man of god
[Am]Man of god, man of god
[D]That ain't the preachings of a[C]
CHORUS: (## repeat and fade to end ##)
[Am]Man of god, man of god
[D]That ain't the teachings of a [C]man of god
[Am]Man of god, man of god
[D]That ain't the preachings of a [C]man of god
