Introdução:

           C 
I picked up this mornings paper,
 F                                                 C 
tears of sorrow filled my eyes,
read where a church spends forty million,
           Am                               G 
to rebuild and to modernize,
 F 
the walls will be made of granite,
                                               C 
imported marble on the floors,
there'll be lots of stained glass windows,
 G                                                     C                   A 
the finest wood for all the doors.
         D                                                 G 
The church invited the mayor,
                                                           D 
and half the folks from city hall,
to take part in the dedication,
               Bm                                                   A 
of the church, that would stand so tall,
                           G 
it said, the local t.v. station,
                                                     D 
will cover the story that day,
but I wonder if they invited Jesus,
 A                                                         D 
or would he just get in their way.
 D                       D7                                 G 
What I wanna know is what about Jesus,
                                           D 
would he be welcomed there,
                                                       A                 Ab   G 
if he came walking in with sandles,
                                                               D 
dressed in sackcloth, and long hair,
 D                 D7                               G 
won't you tell me about the sinner,
                                                 D 
hooked on drugs and alcohol,
                                           A             Ab     G 
oh Lord, it makes me wonder,
                                                             D 
would he be welcomed there at all.
