EXPLAINING JESUS
F C Dm Dm
Bb C F F
F C
If you're gay and over 85
Dm
And you've felt for your whole life
Bb
That when God made you, he just messed up
F C
If you've been raised a southern belle
Dm
Born and bred for show and tell
Bb C
But you lie down feeling never good enough
Bb
I'm so sorry
C F
For how it's been
Bb
We're broken artists
C F
With broken pens
Bb
We paint our pride
C Dm
And call it truth
Bb C
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you
F C
If you've heard a knock on your front door
Dm
But all that you found on the porch
Bb
Was a pastor that just wanted to be right
F C
If you really want to pray to him,
Dm
But you're never sure he's listening
Bb C
Cause who could forgive what you did last night
Bb
I'm so sorry
C F
For what you've heard
Bb
We're broken poets
C F
With silly words
Bb
We paint agendas
C Dm
And call it truth
Bb C
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you
Bb C
Oh
Dm
Can't you feel him in the room
Bb C
Oh
Dm
All he wants is you
Bb
I'm so sorry
C F
For all the wrong
Bb
We're broken singers
C F
With broken songs
Bb
We paint our pride
C Dm
And call it truth
Bb C Dm
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you
Bb C Dm
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you
Bb C
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you
