[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Preacher says we should love our neighbors
N.C.
But I don't even know my neighbors' names
C
And every Sunday, it's the same
G
Trying to find the answers in the stained glass window
N.C.
All the sins I carry on my shoulders
N.C.
Well, it's a wonder that I made it through the door
C
Broke some golden rules the good book said I should stick to
G
Does that make me rotten to the core?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
D C
The whispers in the pews, well, they ain't praying for me and you
D C
How can a place so sacred be filled with so much hatred?
[Chorus 1]
G
But me and Jesus, we're as thick as thieves
D
If you don't believe us, maybe you just don't believe
C
They may say a girl like me is going straight to hell
G D G
Oh, but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel
[Verse 2]
N.C.
I met my best friend Jack in Sunday school
N.C.
Singing about the B-I-B-L-E
C
Learning about the love that purifies each one of us
G
And in his eyes, we are free
N.C.
But Jack grew up and fell in love with Adam
N.C.
Pretty soon the word sure got around
C
Those folks who agreed, that Adam should love Eve
G
Well they kicked Jack and Adam to the ground
[Pre-Chorus 2]
D C
Yeah, whispers in the pews, well, they ain't praying for me and you
D C
If we're covered by his blood then who are they to judge?
[Chorus 2]
G
Yeah, cause Jack and Jesus they're as thick as thieves
D
If you don't believe us, maybe you just don't believe
C
They may say straight or gay, we're going straight to hell
G D G
Oh, but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel
[Bridge]
Em Am
This little light is mine, so let me let it shine
G D
This little light is mine, so let me let it shine
Em Am
This little light is mine, so let me let it shine
G D
This little light is mine, so let me let it shine
Am D
Let it shine, let it shine
[Chorus 3]
G
Yeah, me and Jesus, we're as thick as thieves
D
If you don't believe us, maybe you just don't believe
C
They may say if I act this way, I'm going straight to hell
G D Em
Oh, but I think Jesus can love this Jezebel
G C
G D G
Oh, oh yeah, I know Jesus loves this Jezebel
