Verse 1:
E C G D
Separated, I cut myself clean
Em C G D
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
E C G D
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
E G D A
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced
(Same Strum as Chorus)
I saw a man with tattoo on his big fat belly
It wriggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said
Cause I had to match the rhythm
Of his belly with my head
'Jesus Saves' is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the city
And claimed he had a dream
[Chorus:]
E G
What will people think
D A
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak
E G D A
What will people do when they find that it's true
E G D A
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
E G D A
There ain't no disguising the truth
E G D A
There ain't no disguising the truth,
E G D (hold out)
no I ain't hiding the truth
verse 2:
Kamikaze, my death is gain
I've been marked by my Maker
A peculiar display
The high and lofty, they see me as weak
Cause I won't live and die for the power they seek
(same as Chorus)
There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
The sand that he walked was also his bed
The words that he spoke made the people assume
There wasn't too much left in the upper room
With skins on his back and hair on his face
They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
The Pharisees tripped when they heard him speak
Until the king took the head of this Jesus freak
[Chorus x2]
E G D A
People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
E G D A
That my best friend was born in a manger
People say I'm strange, does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
E, G, D, A (4x)
[Chorus x2]
E
What will people think
G
(What will people think)
D
What will people do
A
(What will people do)
E
I don't really care
G
(What else can I say)
D
There ain't no disguising the truth
A
(Jesus is the way)
