[F#] [Bm]
There's a Jesus in this town, he's dark as night, vicious and cold.
He has a twisted tongue, everything's fake when he's around.
The [G] Jesus that I loved, the Jesus [B] that I loved shot me down.
Son, my [Bm] mother said, go to church, have no glee.
He'll say, if you wait, the Lord will finally set you free.
But the Jesus that [G] I loved, the Jesus [A] that I loved shot [Bm] me down.
[G] End of the game, why should I love?
I've lost my name, why should I [Bm] love?
Nothing moves, nothing changes, hallelujah, round and round.
Nothing moves, nothing changes, though I'm six feet underground.
The Jesus [G] that I loved, [A] the Jesus that I loved [B] shot me down.
A whole decade while his false became true, this town forgets that his son was passing through.
The [G] Jesus that I loved, [A] the Jesus that I loved shot [Bm] me down.
End [G] of the game, why should I love?
I've lost my name, why should I love?
[Em] The rain, the rain, why should I love?

Now I'm walking [Bm] in the shade, I carve my name on doors.
I'm holding my old blade, you better hold yours.
[G] The Jesus that I loved, [A] the Jesus that I loved [Bm] shot me down.
Go to church, have no glee.
Son, my mother said, the Lord will finally set you free.
[G] But the Jesus that I loved, the [A] Jesus that I loved [B] shot me down.
[Bm] [G] End of the game, why should I love?
I've lost my name, why should I [E] love?
Now raise your hand, why should I love?
Now you're [Bm] on your own.
