   Dm                     F         G
My mind is clearer now at last all too well

       F        G       Dm
I can see where we all soon will be

        Dm            F             G
If you strip away the myth from the man

         F            G    Dm
You will see where we all soon will be

Dm                                   Em
Jesus! You've started to believe the things they say of you

    F                      G                 Dm
You really do believe this talk of God is true

    Dm                            Em
And all the good you've done will soon be swept away

F                           G                      Dm
You've begun to matter more than the things you say
[Verse 1]
Dm                      F
  Listen Jesus, I don't like what I see

Dm                      G
  All I ask is that you listen to me

Bb            C                           F           A
  And remember I've been your right hand man all along

         Dm                  Bb
You have set them all on fire

                     F
They think they've found the new Messiah

            Dm/A                A           Bb        Dm7
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong
[Verse 2]
Dm                     F
  I remember when this whole thing began

Dm                        G
  No talk of God then, we called you a man

Bb              C                      F            A
  And believe me my admiration for you hasn't died

          Dm                 Bb
But every word you say today

              F
Gets twisted 'round some other way

            Dm/A             A            Bb    Dm7
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied
[Bridge]
Bb             F          Gm                   Dm
Nazareth, your famous son should have stayed a great unknown

Gm              Dm/A         A               Dm
Like his father carving wood he'd have made good

Bb                 F            Gm                Dm
Tables, chairs and oaken chests would have suited Jesus best

Gm                 Dm/A       A      Dm
He'd have caused nobody harm, no one alarm
[Verse 3]
Dm                     F
  Listen Jesus, do you care for your race?

Dm                      G
  Don't you see we must keep in our place?

Bb                C                           F          A
  We are occupied, have you forgotten how put down we are?

           Dm                  Bb
I am frightened by the crowd

           F
For we are getting much too loud

            Dm/A           Aaug A   Bb
And they'll crush us if we go   too far

Dm7
If we go too far
[Instrumental] Bb F Gm Dm Gm Dm/A A Dm Bb F Gm Dm Gm Dm/A A Dm [Verse 4]
Dm                    F
  Listen Jesus to the warning I give

Dm                       G
  Please remember that I want us to live

Bb                   C                           F         A
  But it's sad to see our chances weakening with ev'ry hour

         Dm                  Bb
All your followers are blind

         F
Too much heaven on their minds

       Dm/A           Aaug A    Bb
It was beautiful, but now  it's sour

          Dm       Bbmaj7                       Dm
Yes, it's all gone sour Ah --- ah ah ah --- ah
