[Intro] Bm [Verse 1]
Bm                                        Em
Man you should have seen me way back then

Bm                                        F#7
I could tell a tale, I could make it spin

        Em
I could tell you black was white

        Bm
I could tell you day was night

                                  F#7
Not only that I could tell you why

                                    Bm
Back then I could really tell a lie
[Verse 2]
         Bm                                 Em
Well I'd hire a kid to say that he was lame

         Bm                               F#7
Then I'd touch him and make him walk again

         Em                           Bm
Then I'd pull some magic trick I'd pretend to heal the sick

                                        F#7
I was takin' everything they had to give

                                      Bm
It wasn't all that bad a way to live
[Verse 3]
         Bm                                      Em
Well I'm in this desert town and it's hot as hell

    Bm                                F#7
But no one's buyin' what I got to sell

  Em                      Bm
I make my lame kid walk I make a dumb guy talk

                                           F#7
I'm preachin' up a storm both night and day

                                      Bm
But everyone just turns and walks away
[Verse 4]
           Bm                             Em
Well I can see that I'm only wasting time

     Bm                                     F#7
So I head across the road to drink some wine

         Em
This old man comes up to me

          Bm
He says I seen you on the street

                                     F#7
You're pretty good if I do say myself

                                                      Bm
But the guy come thru last month he was somethin' else
[Verse 5]
           Bm                             Em
Instead of callin' out for fire from above

         Bm                                  F#7
He just gets real quiet and talks about love

         Em
And I'll tell you somethin' funny

          Bm
He didn't want nobody's money

                                             F#7
Now I'm not exactly sure what this all means

                                                  Bm
But it's the damndest thing I swear I've ever seen
[Solo] Em Bm F#7 Bm [Verse 6]
     Bm                                    Em
Well since that time every town is the same

        Bm                                  F#7
I can't make a dime, I don't know why I came

    Em
I decide I'll go and find him

    Bm
And find out who's behind him

                                            F#7
He has everyone convinced that he's for real

                                       Bm
Well I figure we can work us out a deal
[Verse 7]
      Bm                        Em
So he offers me a job and I say fine

   Bm                                   F#7
He says I'll get paid off on down the line

       Em
Well I guess I'll string along

              Bm
Don't see how too much can go wrong

                                             F#7
As long as he pays my way I guess I'll follow

                                   Bm
We're headed for Jerusalem tomorrow 
[Outro]
Em      Bm            F#7   Bm
      Oooooh   Whoooo Whooo Whoooooo
