Jesus, I Need To Talk To You: Boxcar Willie

Chorded by Gary W, 30 Aug 2006

Intro: Follow pattern of line of first verse*

(D) Last night my little (D7) boy, knelt (G) down beside his

(D) bed

He put his hands together, (E) then he bowed his (A7) head

He said (D) Jesus up in (D7) Heaven, I (G) need to talk to (D) You

*(D) My Mama Always said, You'd (A7) know what to (D) do

(D) I just don't under-(D7)-stand, why (G) Mom was called a- (D) way

But Daddy said that we, will (E) understand some-(A7)-day,

But (D) since my Mama's (D7) gone, oh (G) things are not the (D) same,

Sometimes at night, I hear (A7) Daddy call her (D) name

(D) Please tell my (D7) Mama, (G) that I'm being (D) good

I'm doing all the things, (E) that she said I (A7) should

I'm (D) trying so very (D7) hard, to (G) be her little (D) man

(D) And each night before supper, I (A7) wash my face and (D) hands

Instrumental: Same as Intro

(D) Please tell my (D7) Mama, (G) that I miss her (D) so

And oh how I love her, but (E) this You already (A7) know

And (D) there's just one (D7) thing more, to (G) say before I'm (D) through,

Jesus I feel better, (A7) when I talk to (D) You

[TALK THIS PART]

(D) Well I just stood there in the (D7) hallway, with

(G) tears running down my (D) cheeks. My little boy crawled

into bed, and (E) soon was fast a-(A7)-sleep.

But I (D) knew he'd found an inner (D7) strength, and it (G) would always see him (D) through

[SING THIS LINE]

And I said Jesus up in Heaven, I (A7) need to talk to (D) you
