King Herods Song Tab

by Andrew Lloyd Webber


Verse 1

                                          
Jesus I am overjoyed to meet you face to face
                                            
You've been getting quite a name all around the place.
                              
Healing cripples raising from the dead
                                                         
And now I understand you're God at least that's what you've said...

Chorus 1

                                  
So you are the Christ you're the great Jesus Christ
                                 
Prove to me that you've divine - change my water  into  wine.
                                 
That's all you need do and I'll know it's all true
                   
Come on, King of the Jews !

Verse 2

                                                   
Jesus you just won't believe the hit you've made round here
                                        
You are all we talk about the wonder of the year
                         
Oh what a pity if it's all a lie
                                               
Still I'm sure that you can rock the cynics if you try

Chorus 2

                                 
So you are the Christ you're the great Jesus Christ
                                  
Prove to me that you're no fool - walk across my swimming pool
                           
If you do that for me I'll let you go free
                   
Come on, King of the Jews !

Verse 3
                                 
I only ask things I'd ask any superstar
                                                  
What is it that you have got that puts you where you are?
                           
I'm waiting yes I'm a captive fan
                                             
I'm dying to be shown that you are not just any man

Chorus 3

                                 
So if you are the Christ yes the great Jesus Christ
                                   
Feed my household with this bread, you can do it - on your head !
                                          
Or has something gone wrong ?  Why do you take so long ?
                   
Come on, King of the Jews !

Ending

                                            
Hey! Aren't you scared of me, Christ ?  Mr. Wonderful Christ !
                                    
You're a joke, you're not the lord! You are nothing but a fraud
                        
Take him away - he's got nothing to say
             
Get out you, King of the
             
Get out you, King of the
                          
Oh Get out you, King of the Jews !

Get out of here
Get out of here you
Get out of my life !
