Heaven On Their Minds

Dm

F/D

G/D

My mind is

clearer now-at

last all too

well

F/D

G/D

Dm

I can

see where we

all soon will

be.

Dm

F/D

G/D

If you

strip away the

myth from the

man,

F/D

G/D

Dm

You will

see where we

all soon will

be.

Dm

Dm

Jesus! You've

started to believe

Em/D

The

things they say of you.

F/D

You

really do believe

G/D

Dm

This

talk of God is

true.

Dm

And

all the good you've done

Em/D

Will

soon get swept away.

F/D

You've begun to matter

more 

G/D

Dm

Than the things you

say.

VERSES:

Dm

F

Listen Jesus I don't

like what I see.

I remember when this

whole thing began.

Listen, Jesus, do you

care for your race?

Listen, Jesus, to the

warning I give.

Dm

G

All I ask is that you

listen to me.

No talk of God then, we

called you a man.

Don't you see we must

keep in our place?

Please remember that I

want us to live.

Bb

C

F

A

And remember-

I've been your right hand man

all al-

ong.

And believe me,

my admiration for you

hasn't

died.

We are occupied;

have you forgotten how put

down we

are?

But it's sad to see our

chances weakening with

every

hour.

Dm

You have

set them all on fire.

But every

word you say today

I am

frightened by the crowd.

All your

followers are blind.

Bb

F

They think they've

found the new Messiah.

Get's twisted

'round some other way.

For we are

getting much too loud.

Too much

heaven on their minds.

Dm/A

Aaug A Bb Dm

And they'll

hurt you when they

find they're wrong.

And they'll

hurt you if they

think you've lied.

And they'll

crush us if we

go too far.

It was

beautiful, but

now it's sour.

Nazareth, your

famous son

should have stayed a

great unknown

Gm

Like his father

carving wood-

he'd have made

good.

Bb

Tables, chairs, and

oaken chests

would have suited

Jesus best.

Gm

He'd have caused no

body harm-

no one al-

arm.

CODA:

Dm

Bb (to fade)

Yes it's

all gone

sour.
