[Intro]
Am C G D
 
[Verse 1]
Am C
You were twelve years old when your soul was born
G D
Told a real big lie or discovered porn
Am C
And the God of love became the God of scorn
G D
The leaders told you to, "pray some more"
 
Am C
And I felt that fear in a foreign land
G D
Doing made up good for a made up man
Am C
When a girl came out no one held her hand
G D
And I knew right then I was in a scam but
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
I'm still waiting
G
I'm waiting
D
For you
 
[Chorus]
G D Am C
I wanna be like Jesus
G/B D Am7 C
I don't wanna be like them
G D Am C
I wanna look out for who needs me
G/B D Am7 C
And hang out with my twelve best friends
G D Am C
I wanna be like
G D Am C
(I wanna be like)
 
[Verse 2]
Am C
You got a real sick sense of being kind
G D
If you talk to kids about the day they die
Am C
And the loved ones that they'll leave behind
G D
If they don't believe and they never tithe
 
Am C
The truth is that I am a fool
G D
'Cause I drank the juice and I liked it too
Am C
That God could be in me and you
G D
And there's something else when the walk is through so
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
I'm still waiting
G
I'm waiting
D
For you

I wanna be like Jesus

I wanna look out for who needs me

I wanna be like Jesus
G D Am7 C
But not the way they'd like
G D Am C
I wanna square up to authority
G D Am7 C
And turn some water into wine
 
[Bridge]
Em C
I wanna be like (ooh)
G D
I wanna be like (ooh)
Em C
I wanna be like (Are you waiting?)
G/B D
I wanna be like (I'm waiting too)
