Over The Rhine – Jesus In New Orleans tab
Chords:
intro: G G The last time I saw Jesus Am I was drinking bloody mary's in the South C In a barroom in New Orleans D G Rinsin' out the bad taste in my mouth She wore a dark and faded blazer With a little of the lining hanging out When the jukebox played Miss Dorothy Moore I knew that it was him without a doubt I said the road is my redeemer I never know just what on earth I'll find In the faces of a stranger In the dark and weary corners of a mind She said, The last highway is only As far away as you are from yourself And no matter just how bad it gets It does no good to blame somebody else G Am Ain't it crazy C D G What's revealed when you're not looking all that close G Am Ain't it crazy C D G How we put to death the ones we need the most I know I'm not a martyr I've never died for anyone but me The last frontier is only The stranger in the mirror that I see But when I least expect it Here and there I see my savior's face He's still my favorite loser Falling for the entire human race
