Explaining Jesus

[Verse 1]
          F            C
If you're gay and over 85
Dm                  F
And you've felt for your whole life
     Bb                 F                  C
That when God made you, he just messed up
   F                                C
If you've been raised a southern belle
Dm
Born and bred for show and tell
        Bb               F             C
But you lie down feeling never good enough

[Chorus]
         Bb
I'm so sorry
C            F
For how it's been
              Bb
We're broken artists
C           F
With broken pens
             Bb
We paint our pride
C             Dm
And call it truth
          Bb                         F
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you

[Verse 2]
          F                           C
If you've heard a knock on your front door
Dm                            F
But all that you found on the porch
Bb                     F               Dm    C
Was a pastor that just wanted to be right
       F               C
If you really want to pray to him,
           Dm
But you're never sure he's listening
          Bb            F                  C
Cause who could forgive what you did last night

[Chorus]
         Bb
I'm so sorry
C                F
For what you've heard
                     Bb
We're broken poets
C           F
With silly words
              Bb
We paint agendas
C             Dm
And call it truth
              Bb                         C F
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you

[Bridge]
Bb    C
Oh
          Dm
Can't you feel him in the room
Bb     C
Oh
    Dm
All he wants is you

[Chorus]
          Bb
I'm so sorry
C              F
For all the wrong
              Bb
We're broken singers
C                F
With broken songs
             Bb
We paint our pride
C              Dm
And call it truth
             Bb            C        Dm
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you
              Bb           C        Dm
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you
              Bb                    F
I'm sorry no one explained Jesus to you
