Jesus Never Lived On Mars

A                         F
Jay he was an alien, just one of the boys
C                      G
He had a rock and roll band
A                        F
He smoked dope daily and soon he believed,
C                G
he was a miracle man

[Verse]
A                              F
One day stoned and holy he was crossing the street
C                     G
But he didn’t see the cars
A                                  F
With the dent in his head from the hospital bed
C                       G
he said “I’m Jesus from Mars”

[Chorus]
D                  A        F
And all the little children say,
C                     G
“Jesus Never Lived on Mars”
G                       A             F
You’re just a messed up maggot with a dent in your head
C               D      A
And Jesus never played guitar

[Verse]
A                         F
Dress and restless it was time for the show, but
Continues after the ad
C                                  G
The band sensed that something was wrong
A                          F
Jay’s new ballads that the band didn’t know
C                            G
Made a crucifix and lit us a wrong

[Verse]
A                           F
Jay started singing and the crowd stood and stared
C                               G
And the beer bottles started to crash
A                             F
and they broke Jay’s fingers, tore out his hair
C                               G
And threw him in the alley like trash

[Chorus]
D                  A        F
And all the little children say,
C                     G
“Jesus Never Lived on Mars”
G                       A             F
You’re just a messed up maggot with a dent in your head
C               D      A
And Jesus never played guitar

[Interlude]
D                            C                      D
Jesus loves the little boys, Jesus loves the little girls
D                            C                      D
Jesus loves the little boys, Jesus loves the little girls
D                               C           D      A
Jesus loves the little boys and Jesus never played guitar

[Chorus]
E                  B        G
And all the little children say,
D                     A
“Jesus Never Lived on Mars”
B                                     G
You’re just a messed up maggot with a dent in your head
D               E      B
And Jesus never played guitar

[Verse]
B                    G

D                      A
He had a rock and roll band
B                        G
He smoked dope daily and soon he believed,
D                A
he was a miracle man

[Chorus]
E                  B        G
And all the little children say,
D                     A
“Jesus Never Lived on Mars”
B                                     G
You’re just a messed up maggot with a dent in your head
D               E      B
And Jesus never played guitar
