Del Way - Would Jesus Be Welcome guitar chord

Would Jesus Be Welcome

C

I picked up this mornings paper,

F C

tears of sorrow filled my eyes,

read where a church spends forty million,

Am G

to rebuild and to modernize,

F

the walls will be made of granite,

C

imported marble on the floors,

there'll be lots of stained glass windows,

G C A

the finest wood for all the doors.

D G

The church invited the mayor,

D

and half the folks from city hall,

to take part in the dedication,

Bm A

of the church, that would stand so tall,

G

it said, the local t.v. station,

D

will cover the story that day,

but I wonder if they invited Jesus,

A D

or would he just get in their way.

(chorus)

D D7 G

What I wanna know is what about Jesus,

D

would he be welcomed there,

A Ab G

if he came walking in with sandles,

D

dressed in sackcloth, and long hair,

D D7 G

won't you tell me about the sinner,

D

hooked on drugs and alcohol,

A Ab G

oh Lord, it makes me wonder,

D

would he be welcomed there at all.

(chorus; one more time)

I picked up this mornings paper,

G D
