CAPO 2nd Fret

      Am                                                     Dm
Well I don't go to church on Sunday, don't get on my knees to pray
                                Am       E7                 
Don't memorize the books of the Bible, I got my own special way
Am                                             Dm
I know Jesus loves me, maybe just a little bit more
                         Am           E7               Am
I fall to my knees every Sunday at Zerelda Lee's candy store
           Am                                             Dm
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus, makes me feel good inside
                      Am        E7            
Got to be a chocolate Jesus, to keep me satisfied

       Am                                             Dm
Well I don't want no Abba Zabba, don't want no Almond Joy
                    Am      E7               
There ain't nothing better suitable for this boy
Am                                                                 Dm
Well it's the only thing that can pick me up, better than a cup of gold
                       Am      E7          Am
See, only a chocolate Jesus can satisfy my soul

BREAK (2x):
Dm  Am  Dm  E7

         Dm
When the weather gets rough and it's whiskey in the shade
  Am
It's best to wrap your savior up in cellophane
 Dm
He flows like the big muddy but that's ok
E7
Pour him over ice-cream for a nice parfait

          Am                                          Dm
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus, good enough for me
                      Am     E7                 
Got to be a chocolate Jesus, good enough for me

Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus, makes me feel good inside
                      Am        E7        Am E7 Am
