       Fm
When I met him on a sidewalk

He was preaching to a mailbox
Bbm
Down on 16th Avenue
       C#
And he told me he was Jesus
          Eb
Sent from Jupiter to free us
       Fm
With a bottle of tequila and one 
shoe
Bbm
He raged about repentance
   Csus4           C
He finished every sentence
Fm                              
With a promise that the end was 
Bbm
close at hand
  F#                 Csus4    C
I didn't even try to understand

           Fm        Eb9          
He left me wide eyed in disbelief 
   C#    C
and disillusion
      Fm           Eb9       
I was tongue tied, drawn by my 
     C#    C
conclusions
Bbm             Csus4   C
So I turned and walked away

    Fm         Eb9            Bbm
And laughed at what he had to say
Then casually dismissed him as a

fraud

I forgot he was created in the image
 of my God

       Fm
When I met her in a bookstore

She was browsing on the first floor
Bbm
Through a yoga magazine
        C#
And she told me in her past life
        Eb
She was some plantation slave's wife
    Fm
She had to figure out what that 
might mean
    Bbm                            
She believes the healing powers of 
    Csus4  C
her crystals
          Fm                     
Can bring balance and new purpose to
Bbm
 her life
F#         Csus4
Sounds nice

Bbm                            Fm
Not so long ago, a man from Galilee
                            Eb     
Fed thousands with His bread and 
        C#
His theology
                  Bbm
And the truth He spoke

Quickly became the joke
   Csus4
Of educated, self-inflated Pharisees
 like me

          Eb    D
their conclusions
      Cm                Dsus4    D
Would I have turned and walked away

And laughed at what He had to say
 Cm9


And casually dismissed Him as a 
fraud
   Ab
Unaware that I was staring at the 
image of my God
