If Jesus Asked Me For a Light
written 2006
INTRO: G C G C D
CHORUS:
G C G
What if Jesus came up and asked me for a light
C G D
What would I even say to Him to make the moment right
C G
Don't do that or You'll end up dead
D G
What the hell go right ahead
C G D C
Or can I ask You Sir the meanin' of my life
D G Gsus-G
If Jesus asked me for a light
C G
I'm just tryin' to understand
D G
The price it costs to be a man
C G G/F# Em
I don't have a clue as to where I'm gonna go
C D
Maybe I don't wanna know
C G
All this seems so peculiar
D G
All their words sound so familiar
C G G/F# Em
Do what I say, and not what I do
C D
Yeah they'd like to think that's true
CHORUS
C G
Now everybody's goin' somewhere
D G
But nobody's goin' nowhere
C G G/F# Em
Take one step forward, and fall on your face
C D
In the middle of disgrace
C G
Light a match, mind the flame
D G
Learn to pray and spell your name
C G G/F# Em
Read the Word, and use it like a gun
C D
Just aim it at someone
CHORUS
C D G Gsus-G
If Jesus asked me for a light
C D G Gsus-G
What if Jesus asked you for a light
