**See below for diagrams on the G#dim w/u and
the C add-on for the verse (and other chords)
If I was Jesus, I'd have some real long hair
A robe and some sandals, is exactly what I'd wear
I'd be the guy at the party, turnin' water to wine
G G#dim w/u
Yeah me and my disciples, we'd have a real good time
Chorus:
Ooh and I'd lay my life down for you (wooah)
Yeah and I show you who's the boss (wooah)
I'd forgive you and ado---re you
While I was hangin' on your cross
If I was Jesus, I'd have some friends that were poor
I'd run around with the wrong crowd, man I'd never be bored
Then I'd heal me a blind man, get myself crucified
G G#dim w/u
By politicians and preachers, who got somethin' to hide
If I was Jesus
Dobro solo: (all C)
If I was Jesus, I'd come back from the dead
And I'd walk on some water, just to mess with your head
I know your dark little secrets, I'd look you right in the face
G G#dim w/u
And I'd tell you I love you, with Amazing Grace
If I was Jesus (repeat)
Here's the diagram for the G#dim w/u (walk-up), playing the
note on the low E string is optional. If you do holding it
with your thumb works best:
If you want you can go back and forth in the verse with this
C add on:
Chords:
F = 133211(bar chord) or xx3211
