Hello Saferide - I Was Jesus (2014)

Chords 9/2-2015 by Jon Malmin (jogusmal@hotmail.com)
Tuning: Standard E

It was difficult to put the chords over the lyrics in a truly satisfying way,

since some of the lines

are so long and rapidly sung. I chose to put the lines together in a way that

best conveys the song's

message, in my opinion. Listen to the song if you're unsure how it goes!

[Intro]
D D D D
D Em Bm G D D
D Em Bm G D D

[Verse 1]
D Em Bm G
It was the second day of spring and sunbeams made love to windows in all the
D
houses
D Em Bm G
And I was Jesus and I decided to come down to earth in the shape of a woman
D
this time
D Em G
And I was Jesus, and I went into the sea, and I took two fishes, and I turned
D
them to millions
A D Em
...And I took five loaves of bread, and fed a country with them, and I said:
G
"Do you believe me now?"
D A
"Sorry", they said, "We focused on your wet white clothes as you bent over to

pick up the fishes!"
D Em Bm G D
And I was bitter for a while, but then decided to go at it again

[Interlude]
D Em Bm G D
Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah

[Verse 2]
D Em G
And I was Ghandi and I went back to earth in the shape of a woman this time
D A D Em
.....And the river Ganges it cleared my vision and I, well, I guess I was a
G D
woman again
D A G Bm
.....And I started my quiet, friendly revolution and they said: "Oh, a quiet

friendly woman, super rare"
G Bm
And I tried to convince them "it's not a personality, it's choice and a

belief"
G
And "would you give me credit for it and please follow me"
