GOSPEL TENT

D                     D/F#    G
MOSQUITOES HUMMED AND WE SANG SONGS
D                                A
ABOUT JESUS’ BLOOD AND WHERE OUR SINS HAD GONE
D                D/F#  G
ON A SUMMER NIGHT IN ‘53
D                           A
IN A GOSPEL TENT BEHIND THE DAIRY QUEEN

Bm                       G
JESUS SAVED MY SOUL FROM SIN
D                              A
WHEN HE CAME TO MY HOME TOWN IN A BIG OLD TENT
D                        G
A TEN YEAR OLD SINNER GOT WASHED CLEAN
A               D
BEHIND THE DAIRY QUEEN

NAKED LIGHT BULBS HUNG IN MUGGY AIR
THERE WAS AMAZING GRACE AND FOLDING CHAIRS
THERE WAS JESUS’ FACE ON CARDBOARD FANS
EITHER JESUS’ FACE OR PRAYING HANDS

JESUS SAVED MY SOUL FROM SIN
WHEN HE CAME TO MY HOME TOWN IN A BIG OLD TENT
A TEN YEAR OLD SINNER GOT WASHED CLEAN
BEHIND THE DAIRY QUEEN

AND THERE WAS MUSIC ON A BIG GUITAR
THAT THE PREACHER BROUGHT IN HIS BIG CAR
WE WERE SINGING BRINGING IN THE SHEAVES
AND I WALKED DOWN FRONT AND I FELL ON MY KNEES

JESUS SAVED MY SOUL FROM SIN
WHEN HE CAME TO MY HOME TOWN IN A BIG OLD TENT
A TEN YEAR OLD SINNER GOT WASHED CLEAN
BEHIND THE DAIRY QUEEN
