Well I don't go to church on Sunday, don't get on my knees to pray.

                                Ebm      Bb7                Ebm

Don't memorize the books of the Bible, I got my own special way.

                                               Abm

I know Jesus loves me, maybe just a little bit more.

                         Ebm          Bb7              Ebm

I fall to my knees every Sunday at Zerelda Lee's candy store.

 

 

          Ebm                                               Abm

Well it's got to be a Chocolate Jesus, makes me feel good inside.

                      Ebm       Bb7          Ebm

Got to be a Chocolate Jesus, to keep me satisfied.

See, only a Chocolate Jesus can satisfy my soul.

 

 

         Abm

When the weather gets rough and it's whiskey in the shade.

It's best to wrap your savior up in cellophane.

He flows like the big muddy but that's ok,

Bb7

pour him over ice-cream for a nice parfait.
