I Met Jesus in a Bar Jim Lauderdale
[G]I met Jesus in a bar[Am]
I[D] guess you just can’t fall too far[G]
I was pouring whiskey in an empty heart[Am]
W[D]hen I met Jesus in a bar[G]
[G]Man or angel, son of God, he did not tell me who he was, but I knew[Am]
[D]In that least expected place, I saw heaven in his face and couldn’t move[G]
We sat there for hours, I could feel t[G7]he grace and power,
and I said t[C]hings I’ve never told a soul[Am]
[D]I asked for forgiveness, He said I’ve already done this, don’t you know[G]
I met Jesus in a bar,I guess you just can’t fall too far
I was pouring whiskey in an empty heart
when I met Jesus in a bar.
I started crying in my hands and when I looked up again he was gone.
Then I walked the long way home for the first time knowing I was not alone.
Some meet him on the highway, some meet him on a Sunday on the back row of a church
I can only tell you my way was in a place where people go to hurt.
I met Jesus in a bar. I guess you just can’t fall too far.
I was pouring whiskey in an empty heart.When I met Jesus in a bar.
I was pouring whiskey in an empty heart When I met Jesus in a bar
