Intro: F G C D C A C D C A
[A]It’s a funny world we l[D]ive in, it’s[A] funny everyday, uh-huh
[D]Half the world prays like a preacher, other half don’t[A] even pray
So [E]no one understands you[D]
If you pray in your own [A]way, that’s what I say
(Chorus)
[A]So I’m stuck here in the m[D]iddle
Everything is in a [A]jam (In a jam baby)
[D]Stuck right in the middle
Doors on both sides seem to [A]slam
[E]No one seems to want me, [D]only God would take me like I [A]am
Well my brothers criticize me, say I[D]217;m just too strange[A] to believe
Can you imagine that?
And the [D]others just avoid me, say my faith is so na[A]ive
I’[E]m too sacred for the sinners an[D]d the saints wish I [A]would leave
(Guitar Interlude same as verses)
(Chorus)
[E]No one seems to want me, [D]only God will take me like I [A]am
[E]No one seems to want me, [D]only God will take me like I am[C] [D] [C] [A]
(Ending)
[A] [C] [D] [C] [A]
