Jesus On The Telephone Ukulele chords by Machinery Of The Human Heart

Key: C

🎸 Verse 1:
    Am
Let me out
     G      C
Of these mental ward confines
       F7
So white and plain
    Am
Free my mind



   G           C
From prescriptions that you write
      F7
I'm not the same

  Dm       G
Young kid with the see-through skin
    C  G  Am   Em
All arteries and veins
 Dm      G
Spun out in the family car
     C  G F7
Trying to make my way
 Dm G
Home

🎸 Chorus 1:
     Am       G
Are you ready to put me under?
      C        F7
'Cause I'm ready to go back home
    Am          G
I don't care what the doctors told me
      C           F7
I spoke to Jesus on the telephone
     Am             G
He said, "Lace up your shoes and quit playing the blues"
     C
I'm gonna take me to a better place
     Am            G
Where the sun always shines and the light in your eyes
     C           F7
Is always tended like a burning flame

🎸 Verse 2:
   G Am   G        C
Write me up on a list of who was cured
       F7
And what was slain
    Am       G        C
Like a glove with the blood of who you hurt
      F
I'm thrown away

🎸 Verse 3:
 Em
Because I'm
Dm          G
Half gone, don't know what I'm on
     C   G  Am    Em
My vision blurs and shakes
Dm        G
You don't need a PhD
     C  G F7
To be the one to break
Dm G
Me

🎸 Chorus 2:
    Am        G
Are you ready to call my mother
    C         F7
And my father, my sister too
      Am       G
'Cause I'm going to higher places
      C          F7
And I'm so sorry I'm not taking you
    Am            G
So I'll lace up my shoes and quit playing the blues
     C            F7
I'm gonna take me to a better place
     Am            G
Where the sun always shines and the light in your eyes
     C           F7
Is always tended like a burning flame
     Am
Where the sun always shines
    G
And the bells never chime
    C         F7
And the undertaker stays away
