A Little Story chords and lyrics - DANIEL JOHNSTON

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]There was this big Guy
And He had a great [F]idea.
He [C]built Himself a world

[Verse 2]
And He put people [G]on it.
But [C]the people

[Verse 3]
they turned wicked,
And they soon for[F]got

[Verse 4]
Who had [C]made their very being
And put them on their plan[G]et.

[Verse 5]
So the God [C]He sent His very own Son,
His only holy [F]Son.
And He [C]sent Him to the world

[Verse 6]
'cause something had to be [G]done.
His son [C]walked around

[Verse 7]
and He told the truth

[Verse 8]
Like the truth [C]had never been [F]told.
He was [C]kind to the poor,

[Verse 9]
His [C]home was [G]the road.
Unlike [C]any other heroes

[Verse 10]
Of which a song could be [F]sung,
He never [C]did bad to anyone.
He never did no [G]harm.

[Verse 11]
But there were [C]other people
who weren't so nice
And they plotted to take His [F]life
And the [C]Man knew all about it
But He didn't even [G]hide.
And [C]they beat Him and

[Verse 12]
[C]
they robbed Him
And they hung Him for bein' [F]good.
And they [C]laughed and made jokes
While they stood in his [G]blood.

[Verse 13]
[G]
But there's [C]a happy ending to the story.
I think you'll be glad to [F]know
He came [C]back to life in glory,

[Verse 14]
And up from the grave [G]He arose.
So be[C]fore you turn

[Verse 15]
out your light,
Remember this one [F]Man

[Verse 16]
Who lived [C]comfortably in heaven
But gave it all up to hang [G]on a cross.

[Verse 17]
Because [C]He hung for you and me

[Verse 18]
And He came to set us [F]free.
'Cause his [C]Dad had a great idea

[Verse 19]
About the way things [C]ought [G]to [C]be.
