Intro:
G

Verse 1:
G
I met a wino on the street today
G
Pretended not to see him, tried to walk away
Csus2
He looked right through me,
G
Right down to my soul
D
He said, do you know Jesus?
G
And if you do, well could you tell him where I am, sir?
Csus2
'Cause I ain't got a clue
G
I used to be a soldier, but these days I ain't got a home
D
Verse 2:
G
I fought for my country, dug for sand
Csus2
In a war I didn't believe in
G
I buried my brothers, and all the ones I couldn't save
D
War took my innocence, and doctors took my list
G
Sir, I hate to bother you, and I'm way too proud to beg
D
But this unwanted man could sure use a helping hand

Chorus:
C
If you talk to Jesus, tell him where I am, sir
G
We ain't talked to each other since I left Afghanistan
D
They called me a hero,
G
But I feel so alone
C
The Bible says He loves me, and I love Him too
G
But this world’s just too damn evil, and I don’t know what to do
D          C
This unwanted man could sure use a helping hand

Verse 3:
G
I finally got up the nerve to talk, and said, sir, I do believe
Csus2
I know Jesus, and He knows me
G
I leapt into a church,
D
Then we went on inside
G
He rolled up to the altar, in that rusty old wheelchair
Csus2
Bowed his head and closed his eyes, and offered up this prayer
G       D
And the words he said just tore me up as I stood there and cried

Chorus:
G
He said, hello Jesus,
Csus2
Here I am Lord
G
We ain't talked to each other since I left Afghanistan
D
They say I’m a hero,
G       Gsus2
But I feel so alone
Csus2
The Bible says He loves me, and I love Him too
G
But this world’s just too damn evil, and I don’t know what to do
D           Csus2
This unwanted man could sure use a helping hand

Outro:
G   Gsus2  G
D           Csus2
Lord, I know Your son - wasn't He also an unwanted man?
Csus2
Yeah…
