Jesus In La Ukulele chords by Alec Benjamin

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:
       Dm
Well, I shook hands with the devil
       Am
Down on the south side
    G        Am
And he bought us both a drink
    Dm        Am
With a pad and a pencil sat by his side
     G         Am
I said "Tell me what you think"


Pre-Chorus:

      Dm        Am
I've been looking for my savior, looking for my truth
  G     Am
I even asked my shrink
        Dm
He brought me down to his level
 Am                    G          Am
Said "Son, you're not special, you won't find him where you think"
Chorus:
                Dm Am
You won't find him down on sunset
              G Am
Or at a party in the hills
              Dm Am
At the bottom of the bottle
                   G Am
Or when you're tripping on some pills
      Dm         Am
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
     G      Am
Packed a bag and ran away
          Dm         Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
            G   Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
          Dm         Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
            G   Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
Verse 2:
      Dm
Took a sip of his whiskey
 Am                    G        Am
Said, "Now that you're with me, well, I think that you should stay"
     Dm
Yeah, I know you've been busy
Am
 Searching through the city
  G      Am
So let me share the way

Pre-Chorus:

  Dm
I know I'm not your savior
Am
 Know I'm not your truth
    G      Am
But I think we could be friends
        Dm        Am
He said "Come down to my level, hang out with the devil
     G      Am
Let me tell you, in the end"


Chorus:

                 Dm Am
You won't find him down on sunset
              G Am
Or at a party in the hills
              Dm Am
At the bottom of the bottle
                   G Am
Or when you're tripping on some pills
      Dm         Am
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
     G      Am
Packed a bag and ran away
          Dm         Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
            G   Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
          Dm         Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
            G   Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA


Bridge:

Am
  And that is when I knew that it was time to go home
G
  And that is when I realized that I was alone
Am
  And all the vibe and colors from the lights fade away
Dm                Am
  And I don't care what they say


Chorus:
                 Dm Am
You won't find him down on sunset
              G Am
Or at a party in the hills
              Dm Am
At the bottom of the bottle
                   G Am
Or when you're tripping on some pills
      Dm         Am
When they sold you the dream you were just 16
     G      Am
Packed a bag and ran away
          Dm         Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
            G   Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA
          Dm         Am
And it's a crying shame you came all this way
            G   Am
'Cause you won't find Jesus in LA

                Dm Am
I won't find him down on sunset
              G Am
Or at a party in the hills
              Dm Am
At the bottom of the bottle
                  G Am
Or when I'm tripping on some pills
      Dm        Am
When they sold me the dream I was just 16
      G      Am
Packed my bag and ran away
          Dm       Am
And it's a crying shame I came all this way
           G    Am
'Cause I won't find Jesus in LA

(One Strum)
          Dm        Am
And it's a crying shame I came all this way
           G   Am
'Cause I won't find Jesus in LA
