Explaining Jesus

Jordy Searcy


Tom: F

   F                            C
If you’re gay and over 85 
Bb                      C               F
You felt that for your whole life that when God made you 
F               Bb 
He just messed up
F                               C       Dm              Dm
If you’ve been raised a southern belle, born and bred for show and tell
Bb                                      C
But you lie down never feeling good enough
Bb                      F
I’m so sorry for how it’s been

[Chorus]
Bb                              Dm
We’re broken artists with broken pens
Bb                              Dm  
We paint our pride and call it truth 
Bb              C               F 
I’m sorry no one explained Jesus to you. 

[same verse]
   F                            C
If you’ve heard a knock on your front door 
Bb                      C               F         F               Bb
But all that you found on the front porch was a pastor who just wanted to be right 
F                               C       Dm              Dm
If you’ve heard Christian radio but you feel it more when Kendrick says 
Bb                                      C
God’s got us, We gonna be alright 
Bb                      F
I’m so sorry for what you’ve heard 

Bb                              Dm
We’re silly poets with shitty words
Bb                              Dm   
We paint agendas and call it truth 
Bb              C               F 
I’m sorry no one explained Jesus to you. 

[Bridge]
Bb      C                       Dm 
Oh, oh, oh, can’t you feel it in the room 
Dm      C       
Oh, oh, oh, all He wants is you

[chorus]
Bb                      Dm 
I’m so sorry for all the wrongs 

Bb                              F
We’re broken singers with broken songs
Bb                              F 
We paint our pride and call it truth 
Bb              C               F
I’m sorry no one explained Jesus to you
Bb              C               F
I’m sorry no one explained Jesus to you
Bb              C               F
I’m sorry no one explained Jesus to you
