Jesus Shot Me in the Head Hiss Golden Messenger
[A5] [C/G] [A5] [C/G]
[A5] [C/G] [Em] [C/G]
[C/G]Now I'm bound for [G]Nazareth town with [D]all the mistakes I've [C/G]made
Well[C/G] God is good and it's [G]understood, but he [D]moves in mysterious [A5]ways
[C/G]He saw it all, my [G]folderol, my [D]rough and rowdy [C/G]friends
in fact [C/G]I was getting wrecked in a [G]Motel 6, when he [D]showed up in the [A5]back
[C/G]So goodbye sweet G[G]enevieve and g[D]oodbye my Tulsa f[C/G]riends
But [C/G]hey everybody did you [G]hear the news, Je[D]sus shot me in the h[A5]ead
[C/G]Just as well I was [G]going to hell, I [D]wasted every[C/G]thing
[C/G]no more shooting pool, no [G]getting drunk, now I'm [D]gone to see the [A5]king
Chorus:
[G]So I'm on the [D]road again, yes I'm on the road [C/G]again
[G]No more [D]rolling down that [A5]wicked t[Em]rack, I'm g[C/G]one to see[F/C] the kin[G]g
[G]But oh lord I [D]need a hand, oh lord I need a [C/G]hand
[G]Don't be [D]late at those p[A5]early g[Em]ates, c[C/G]ome on[F/C] let me [G]in
[C/G]I spent some time in Jer[G]usalem where I t[D]ried my best to be[C/G]have
and [C/G]I told the town how they [G]cut Him down and He r[D]ose up from the gr[A5]ave
[C/G]Would you believe they [G]laughed at me, no they [D]would not leave me [C/G]be
[C/G]Next thing I know I was s[G]kipping stones on the [D]Sea of Gali[A5]lee
-Chorus-
[G]So I'm on the [D]road again, yes I'm on the road [C/G]again
[G]No more [D]rolling down that [A5]wicked t[Em]rack, I'm g[C/G]one to see[F/C] the kin[G]g
[G]But oh lord I [D]need a hand, oh lord I need a [C/G]hand
[G]Don't be [D]late at those p[A5]early g[Em]ates, c[C/G]ome on[F/C] let me [G]in

[C/G]The time will come when the c[G]hosen one He c[D]alls on us in [C/G]thanks
He l[C/G]oves us all but the on[G]es who fall hold a [D]special place in his [A5]ranks
[C/G]At least I hope this is h[G]ow it goes, since I'm j[D]ust about out of b[C/G]reath
So [C/G]hey everybody did you [G]hear the news, Je[D]sus shot me in the h[A5]ead
-Chorus- 2x
[G]So I'm on the [D]road again, yes I'm on the road [C/G]again
[G]No more [D]rolling down that [A5]wicked t[Em]rack, I'm g[C/G]one to see[F/C] the kin[G]g
[G]But oh lord I [D]need a hand, oh lord I need a [C/G]hand
[G]Don't be [D]late at those p[A5]early g[Em]ates, c[C/G]ome on[F/C] let me [G]in
