Chocolate Jesus by Tom Waits

by fredrick francis alexandre smith II
If you don’t think that this is the best song in the world…I will fight you!

Dm								Gm
Don't go to church on Sunday, don't get down on my knees and pray
Gm				Dm	Am
Don't memorize the books of the bible got my own special way
Dm						Gm
I know Jesus loves me, maybe just a little bit more
Gm				Dm		Am		Dm
I get down on my knees every Sunday, at Zarelda Lee's candy store

Dm							Gm
Got to be a Chocolate Jesus, make me feel so good inside
Gm			Dm	Am		Dm
Got to be a Chocolate Jesus, keep me satisfied

Don't want no Abba Zabba, don't want no Almond Joy
There ain't nothin’ better, suitable for this boy
Well it’s the only thing that can pick me up
Better than a cup of gold
See only a Chocolate Jesus, can satisfy my soul
		
	Gm
When the weather gets rough and its whisky in the shade
				Dm
Best to wrap your savior up in cellophane
 Gm
He floats like The Big Muddy, but that's okay

A7
Pour him over ice cream for a nice parfait ....

Got to be a Chocolate Jesus, good enough for me
Got to be a Chocolate Jesus, good enough for me

Got to be a Chocolate Jesus, make me feel so good inside
Got to be a Chocolate Jesus, keep me satisfied
