E F# G#m B E
 
VERSE
    E                  F#     G#m
You sit there in your heart-ache
    B              E
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
 E                F#       G#m
To save you from your old ways
 B
You play forgiveness
E
Watch it now Here he comes
 
CHORUS
    E                       F# G#m
He doesnt look a thing like Je-sus
            B
But he talks like a gentleman

VERSE
 E
Can we climb this mountain
 F#     G#m
I dont know
 B                        E
Higher now than ever before
 E                           F#      G#m
I know we can make it if we take it slow
 B
Let's take it easy
  E
Easy now,  watch it go
 
CHORUS
 E                             F#   G#m
We're burning down the highway sky- line
         B
On the back of a hurricane
 E
That started turning
               F#  G#m     B    E
When you were   young
               F#  G#m     B   E
When you were   young
 
VERSE
       E           F#          G#m
And sometimes you close your eyes
              B                      E
And see the place where you used to live
                F#  G#m     B     E
When you were    young

BRIDGE
            C#m
The say the devil's water, it ain't so sweet.
    E                         G#m
You don't have to drink right now.
D#m                     G#m
   But you can dip your feet.
F#                            E       F#  G#m B       E
   Every once in a little while.

[Chorus & Outro]
                                  F#   G#m    B   E
I said he doesnt look a thing like Jesus      
                           F#   G#m         B    E
He doesnt look a thing like Jesus
           E  D#m   C#m   B   A#m   G#m   F#
But more than you'll ever know
