Ebm Abm
Well I dont go to church on sunday, dont get on my knees to pray
Ebm Bb7
Dont memorize the books of the Bible, I got my own special way
Ebm Abm
I know Jesus loves me, maybe just a little bit more
Ebm Bb7 Ebm
I fall on my knees every Sunday at Zerelda Lee's candy store
Ebm Abm
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus, make me feel good inside
Ebm Bb7 Ebm
Got to be a chocolate Jesus, keep me satisfied
Well I dont want no Abba Zabba, dont want no almond joy
There aint nothing better suitable for this boy
Well it's the only thing that can pick me up
Better than a cup of gold
See only a chocolate Jesus can satisfy my soul
Abm
When the weather gets rough and it's whiskey in the shade
Ebm
It's best to wrap your savior up in cellophane
Abm
He flows like the big muddy but thats ok
Bb7
Pour him over ice cream for a nice parfait
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus, good enough for me
Got to be a chocolate Jesus, good enough for me
Well it's got to be a chocolate Jesus, make me feel good inside
Got to be a chocolate Jesus, keep me satisfied
