Jesus On A Wire Chords by Kurt Vile

[Verse 1]
 
D             C
Jesus on the phone

           D                C
Talking ’bout a nervous breakdown

      D         C
Even he don’t know

          D              C
How to bail us out of this one

      Am
“What a mess!” I sing to myself

C                      G
Thinkin’ ’bout another song

Am
I wanna reach out to old Jesus

C                      D
Tell him I, too, feel alone

C        D
And I’m here to save ya
 
 
[Verse]

 
D             C
Jesus on a wire

           D                C
And he’s lookin’ very tired

          D              C
And me, I don’t blame him

          D              C
And I almost want to claim him

    Am
So I ring a couple chords out

C                      G
On my Martin Double O

     Am
And I see them floating upward

C                      D
And I watch ’em as they go

           C           D
Into the pockets of Judas 

Iscariot in the sky

   C           D
Up through the cracks 

In the ceiling
 
 
 
 
[Verse]

 
D             C
Jesus on the edge

      D                C
And I feel the same way lately

              D                C
And he hammers down some numbers

        D        
And it shakes the 

        C
Sky like thunder

    Am          
I saw him risin’ 
         C
o’er the horizon

               G
And I saw him fall

Am
When the scene dissipated

    C                      
And the world just 

        D
Waited and waited

C           D
For a return
