Intro:

G  Em  D  C
          

Verse 1:
                   G
I was told He was angry
                  Em
And He hated the music up too loud
                     D
I was told He would save me
                    C
If I showed up to church and I shut my mouth
       G
If I smoked, if I drank, if I cussed, I'd think
            Em
I was on a long black train to Hell
                    D
Yeah, I thought I knew Him
        C
'Til I met Him for myself
Chorus:
          G
But the Jesus I know now
                 Em
Ain't shakin' a fist, ain't raisin' a brow
            D
Yeah, the Jesus I know now
                C
Ain't runnin' away from a party crowd
            G
I found a friend
                    Em                                         D
Who hangs with the misfits, listens, forgives, then forgives again
                             C
Can't believe I was missin' out
                     G
On the Jesus I know now
Post-Chorus:
Em  C
Mm

Verse 2:
                 G
I'm learnin' He likes me
             Em
Even when I take a joke a little too far
                        D
Yeah, I'm learnin' He knows me
                               C
Every hair on my head, every story behind my scars
        G
And He says who I am and it ain't what I do
      Em
His grace takes some gettin' used to
                 D
I'm learnin' He loves me
                    C
Yeah, the boy in a bar and the kid in a pew
Chorus:
          G
But the Jesus I know now
                 Em
Ain't shakin' a fist, ain't raisin' a brow
            D
Yeah, the Jesus I know now
                C
Ain't runnin' away from a party crowd
            G
I found a friend
                    Em                                         D
Who hangs with the misfits, listens, forgives, then forgives again
                             C
Can't believe I was missin' out
                     G  Em
On the Jesus I know now.

Post-Chorus:
                     D
On the Jesus I know now
              C
The Jesus I know now
Bridge:
                     G
Yeah, I got what I wanted
            Em
I heard my song on the radio
                    D
Let me longin' and lonelier
             C
Top of the world with an empty heart
      C
And nowhere left to go
     C
But back into the arms
Chorus:
         G
Of the Jesus I know now
              Em
Ain't just a voice up there in the clouds
           D
Yeah, the Jesus I know now
                    C
Ain't lookin' for trophies to make Him proud
            G
I found a friend
                    Em                                         D
Who hangs with the misfits, listens, forgives, then forgives again
                             C
Can't believe I was missin' out
                     G  Em
On the Jesus I know now.
