Tuning: Standard E

It was difficult to put the chords over the lyrics in a truly satisfying way, since some of the lines
are so long and rapidly sung. I chose to put the lines together in a way that best conveys the song's 
message, in my opinion. Listen to the song if you're unsure how it goes!

[Intro]
D    D    D    D
D  Em  Bm  G  D    D
D  Em  Bm  G  D    D

[Verse 1]
           D               Em           Bm                  G                D  
It was the second day of spring and sunbeams made love to windows in all the houses
           D             Em                    Bm                      G          D
And I was Jesus and I decided to come down to earth in the shape of a woman this time
           D                 Em                           G                            D      
And I was Jesus, and I went into the sea, and I took two fishes, and I turned them to millions
A                  D                           Em                                     G
...And I took five loaves of bread, and fed a country with them, and I said: "Do you believe me now?"
               D                         A             
"Sorry", they said, "We focused on your wet white clothes as you bent over to pick up the fishes!"
           D             Em              Bm          G            D
And I was bitter for a while, but then decided to go at it again

[Interlude]
D     Em    Bm    G      D
Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah

[Verse 2]
           D                 Em                              G               
And I was Ghandi and I went back to earth in the shape of a woman this time
D  A               D                    Em                                   G            D 
.....And the river Ganges it cleared my vision and I, well, I guess I was a woman again
D  A         G                                             Bm
.....And I started my quiet, friendly revolution and they said: "Oh, a quiet friendly woman, super rare"
       G                                                    Bm
And I tried to convince them "it's not a personality, it's choice and a belief"
                        G
And "would you give me credit for it and please follow me"
              Bm                                            G
And they said: "Speak louder, we can't hear you when we're screaming
                                 A
you look nice now that you don't eat"

[Verse 3]
          D                             Em                              G
And I was Martin Luther King and I came back to earth in the shape of a woman this time
                D                         A
And I was both black and a woman so I had two fights to fight so I was burned out and well, that was it

[Verse 4]
          D                Em                                          G                   D
And I was Jesus and I went up to heaven Easter Sunday and I said: "I'm never going back to earth"
A      D                  Em          Bm                 G               D
...And Mother said: "oh Jesus up 'til now, you've been paying for Adam's sins
D         Em       Bm
Soon is when the fun begins"
      D         Em       Bm             G           D
And then, she gave me a date for when this would occur

[Outro]
D     Em    Bm    G      D
Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah
D     Em    Bm    G      D
Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah, aaah
