I saw a (D)dead man walkin'
I saw a (G)dumb man talkin'(G7)
I saw a (D)cripple man lay down his cane and(A7)run
A little (D)boy with the loaves and fishes
Feed all the (G)hungry people
And a (D)woman with some (A7)faith was made (D)whole
Now my (D)name is Zacchaeus
And I (G)heard about Jesus
I (D)sought to see Him for who He (A)was(A7)
I was a (D)little man of stature
And there was (G)so many people
I(D)ran ahead, went up a tree, where (A7)He was passin(D)by
chorus
(G)You don't want to miss it friend
When (D)Jesus comes to town
He'll break the chains of sin, set you free
He's (A7)callin' you right now
Leave (G)everything and follow Him
(D)You'll be heaven (G)bound(G7)
Naw...(D)you don't want to miss it friend
When (A7)Jesus comes to (D)town
Now (D)there was something missin'
In the (G)life that I was livin'
I knew (D)Jesus was the one to make things (A)right(A7)
Well I (D)heard Him callin' my name
He said (G)"Come down out of that tree boy!"
I (D)did and I got saved somewhere be(A7)tween the limb and the (D)ground
repeat chorus twice
tag
Naw (D)you don't want to miss it friend
When (A7)Jesus comes to (D)town
