            Jesus Gonna Be Here
               by Tom Waits 
 *capo 1.fret
[Intro]
Dm
[Verses]
                  Dm
Well, Jesus gonna be here
Gonna be here soon
he's gonna cover us up with leaves
                        A7
With a blanket from the moon
       Dm
With a promise and a vow
      Gm
And a lullaby for my brow
            Dm      A7
Jesus gonna be here
              Dm
gonna be here soon
Well I'm just gonna do nothin' but wait here
I don't have to shout
I got no reason and
And I got no doubt
I'm gonna get myself unfurled
From this mortal coiled up world
Jesus gonna be here
Gonna be here soon
I got to keep my eyes open
So I can see my Lord
I'm gonna watch the horizon
For a brand new Ford
I can hear him rolling on down the lane
I said Hollywood be thy name
Jesus gonna be
Gonna be here soon
Well I gotta keep myself faithful
And you know I've been so good
Except for drinking
But he new that I would
I'm gonna leave this place better
Than the way I found it was
And Jesus gonna be here
Gonna be here soon
