What If God Was One Of Us Tab

by Joan Osborne


Imagine that?  I looked for this song but didn't find it, only the parody (what
if God Smoked Cannabis)

SO I present the original Lyrics by Joan Osbourne, and chords from Pati_, to give
you the song as it was meant to be.

Capo 2nd fret

 -  -  - 

                           
If God had a name, what would it be
                         
And would you call it to his face
                                     
If you were faced with him in all his glory
                                             
What would you ask if you had just one question
 
   
                     
And yeah yeah God is great 
               
Yeah yeah god is good
       
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
                         
What if god was one of us?
                             
Just a slob like one of us?
                                         
Just a stranger on the bus
                                        
Just tryin' to make his way home

If God had a face what would it look like
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and in jesus and the saints and all the prophets

And yeah yeah god is great yeah yeah god is good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
He's trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in rome

And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

What if god was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in rome

This is the FIRST TIME I've EVER submitted chords.  Be gentle!
