D                   Bm
After seven days, he was               
G                         D    A
Quite tired, so God said               
D              Bm
Let there be a day just for
G                   Bm       G
Picnics, with wine and bread
A                        D                     G           
He Gathered up some people he had made
Em                                D                    G
Created blankets and laid back in the shade 

The people sipped their wine, and what with
God there, they asked him ques tions, like
Do you have to eat, or get your 
hair cut in heaven
And if your eye got poked out in this life,
would it be waiting up in heaven with your wife   

      A                E                  A
      God shuffled his feet and glanced a round at them
      D      A                    E                    A         D  G
      The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him  

So he said once there was a boy,       
Who woke up with blue hair.
To him it was a joy, until he
ran out into the warm air      
He thought of how his friends would come to see
and would they laugh or had he got some strange disease   
 
        A                E                  A
      God shuffled his feet and glanced a round at them
      D      A                    E                    A         D  G
      The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him  

The people sat waiting out on their
blankets in the garden.
But God said nothing. So someone
asked him, beg your pardon
I'm not quite clear a bout what you just spoke
Was that a parable or a very subtle joke?

         A                E                  A
      God shuffled his feet and glanced a round at them
      D      A                    E                    A         D  G
      The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him
