D A G A

I can't say that I love Jesus

D A G

that would be a hollow claim.

D A G A

He did make some observations

D A G

and I'm quoting them today.

D A G A

"Judge not lest ye be judged."

D A G

what a beautiful refrain.

D A G A

The studio audience disagrees.

D A G

Have his lambs all gone astray?

A B C# D A G

A B C# D

D a G A

"You are lost and disillusioned!"

D A G

what an awful thing to say.

D A G A

I know this show doesn't matter.

D A G

It means nothing to me.

D A G A

I thought I might help them understand

D A G

but what an ugly thing to see.

D A G A

"I am not an animal"

D A G

subtitled under the screen.

When I tried to tell my story

D A G

They cut me off to take a break.

D A G A

I sat silent 5 commercials

D A G

I had nothing left to say

D A G A

The talk show host was index-carded

D A G

All organized and blank

D A G A

The other guests were scared and hardened

D A G

What a sad parade.

A B C# D

What a sad parade

A B C# D A G

Call me a leper

From: Jacob Knee (jknee@globalnet.co.uk)

Enclosed is my slightly different attempt at working out the basic chord

structure of this song - (taken from the acoustic version).

(I've done it as 'corrections' to the version you already had)

NEW TEST LEPER

the verse goes like this:

A*:540005

D A G -A* D A G (4x, me thinks)

(This bit is more or less right - though on the slide up to the fifth fret

I'm not sure if the bass notes are being played)

the chorus (im pretty sure about this) goes like this:

G A B C D C(3x) G A B C D (that may be wrong - it's from memory)

Bridge:

Bm A D(4x, me thinks)

and end on Em(7?)

I would guess the chorus is:

A, Bm, C#m, D

A, G ('Call me a leper')

(on last time - just A)

And the bridge I would say is:

(Bm, D, G X2), A
