Verse 1:
       A            A                A        A
I was on my way to somewhere to the Mexicali sand
   F#m            D                A             A
A man sat down beside me, he had scars upon his hands
  A                A       A                A
 He told me some stories - I told him some lies
  F#m                    D               A              A
 Light shone through my darkness, cast shadows from my mind
    C#m                     C#m               D              A
His eyes they looked right through me, oh I knew he carried weight
  C#m                 C#m             E    E
  Something real was going down that day

Chorus:
      D       A      E    F#m   D        A       E F#m
Oh I told him I'm a sinner,     he said that's o.k.
 D        A       E        F#m   G                       G
 I'm not here to change you any-way, he was gone when I turned around
          D       D           A         A   A   A
Was that Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound

Verse 2:
    A                A                    A              A
We talked about the world gone bad, the troubles we had seen
   F#m               D                   A              A
We talked about the dirt brown shoes he wore on his feet
    A                  A                A             A
He said I'm tired and weary, I've been riding a long way
  F#m            D                      A          A
  Let me rest my eyes for now, let me drift away
    C#m           C#m       D             A
He acted like he knew me, then he fell asleep
  C#m            C#m             E    E
  I had no more secrets I could keep

Chorus:
      D       A      E    F#m   D        A       E F#m
Oh I told him I'm a sinner,     he said that's o.k.
 D        A       E        F#m   G                       G
 I'm not here to change you any-way, he was gone when I turned around
          D       D           A         A   A   A
Was that Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound

  B                                  B
 Somewhere in the sunlit mornin' I stepped off the bus in the
               D              D
middle of the city of angels
          B                                        B
And that long haired hippie was up and gone where devils run and
                      D              D
play and lust lookin for the danger
       B                                          B
Oh and I looked at my feet and saw the shoes that he had worn and
                                D      D
Thank God for that beautiful stranger
          E               E               E      E
Was that Jesus, was that Jesus, was that Jeeee - sus

Chorus:
      D       A      E    F#m   D        A       E F#m
Oh I told him I'm a sinner,     he said that's o.k.
 D        A       E        F#m   G                       G
 I'm not here to change you any-way, he was gone when I turned around
          D       D           A         A   A   A
Was that Jesus - Jesus on a Greyhound

Outro:
          A    A        A     A
And I'll rise,    I'll rise again,
   F#m             D                  A     A
 ain't no power on earth can keep me down
          A    A        A     A
And I'll rise,    I'll rise again,
      F#m                 D               A     A
There ain't no death can keep me in the ground
          A    A        A     A
Was that Jesus
      F#m                 D               A     A
