A                              E7
There was once a time when I was dead in side
I cussed the Lord for the day I was born
                           A
And prayed to the Devil to die
Just when I thought the Devil had won
        A7            D
Someone opened up the door
            E7
The King of kings
The Lord of lords
                               A
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor

[Chorus]
     D                                             A
Now, he broke the chains that bound me and now I'm free
                                      E
Today I'm right where mama prayed I'd be
    D
I'm down on my knees, now I believe
                   A
What mama knew for sure
         E7
He's the King of kings
The Lord of lords
                               A
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor

[Verse]
     A                                                    E7
Now, if you're in trouble friend, let me tell you what to do
I'll tell you what he's done for me
                             A
And I know what he'll do for you
It makes no difference what you've done
                       A7       D
You've a friend in the One I ad ore
            E7
The King of kings
The Lord of lords
                               A
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor

[Verse]
     D                                             A
Now, he broke the chains that bound me and now I'm free
                                      E
Today I'm right where mama prayed I'd be
    D
I'm down on my knees, now I believe
                   A
What mama knew for sure
         E7
He's the King of kings
The Lord of lords
                               A
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor
         E7
He's the King of kings
The Lord of lords
                               A
I found Jesus on the jailhouse floor
