Here are the chords.  If they're not perfectly over the words, I apologize; you can copy 
paste this to your computer using Word or whatever and edit it.

                
Which Jesus do you follow?
                
Which Jesus do you serve?
                          
If Ephesians says to imitate Christ,
                              
Why do you look so much like the world?

Chorus:
                       
Cause my Jesus bled and died
                                
He spent His time with thieves and liars
                       
He loved the poor and accosted the arrogant
                         
So which one do you want to be?

Verse 2:
                       
Blessed are the poor in spirit
                                                 
Or do we pray to be blessed with the wealth of this land?
                                         
Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness
                                     
Or do we ache for another taste of this world of shifting sand?

Chorus 2:
                       
Cause my Jesus bled and died for my sins
                                
He spent His time with thieves and liars
                     
He loved the poor and accosted the rich
                         
So which one do you want to be?

Bridge:
                   
Who is this that you follow?
                           
This picture of the American dream
                                               
If Jesus was here would you walk right by on the other side
                              
Or fall down and worship at His holy feet
                        
Holy, yeah...

Verse 3:
                                         
Pretty blue eyes and curly brown hair and a clear complexion
                                    
Is how you see Him as He dies for your sins
                                                     
But the Word says He was battered and scarred or do you miss that part?
                               
Sometimes I doubt we’d recognize Him

Chorus 3:
                       
Cause my Jesus bled and died
                                    
He spent His time with thieves and the least of these
                       
He loved the poor and accosted the comfortable
                         
So which one do you want to be?

Chorus 4:
                               
Cause my Jesus would never be accepted in my church
                                            
The blood and dirt on His feet might stain the carpet
                                     
But He reaches for the hurting and despises the proud
                                        
And I think He’d prefer Beale St. to the stained glass crowd
                                   
And I know that He can hear me if I cry out loud

Outro:
                     
I want to be like my Jesus
                     
I want to be like my Jesus
                     
I want to be like my Jesus (hey yeah)
                     
I want to be like my Jesus (oh oh ohhhh)
                                                    
Not a posterchild for American prosperity, but like my Jesus
                                               
You see I’m tired of living for success and popularity
                     
I want to be like my Jesus
                 
But I’m not sure what that means to be like You, Jesus
                                                           
Cause You said to live like You, love like You but then You died for me
                  
Can I be like You Jesus?
                      
I want to be like you Jesus
                     
I want to be like my Jesus
