God Said No by Dan Bern
God Said No
Capo II
D A
I met God On the edge of town
Bm G
Where the wind meets the stillness, Where the darkness meets the light
D A
Where the ocean meets the sky, Where the desert meets the rain
Bm G D A Bm G
Where the earth meets the heavens, on the edge of town I met God
I asked God Do one thing for me
Send me back in time, send me to Seattle
Let me go find Kurt Cobain
Take away his gun, take away his bullets
Talk to him, make him wanna live
Tell him how we love him, help him see his glory
God Said No, if I sent you back
If you really found him you would only ask him
If he could help you get a deal
If he knows a lawyer if he can help you ... God Said No
I asked God, do one thing for me
Send me back in time, send me to Berlin
Let me find the one they call Hitler
I will stalk him, I will bring him down
I will bring along a powerful gun
Loaded with bullets, obliterate his memory
God Said No, if I sent you back
You would get caught up in theory and discussion
You would let your fears delay and distract you
You would make friends, you would take a lover ... God Said No
I asked God, do one thing for me
Send me back in time, send me to Jerusalem
Let me go, let me go find Jesus
Let me save his life as they try to kill him
Let me take him down, down from the cross
Take the iron from his body, try to heal his wounds
God Said No, if I let you go
If you really found him walking with the cross
You would stare, your tongue no longer working
Eyes no longer seeing, ears no longer hearing
God said Time, time belongs to me
Time's my secret weapon, my final advantage
God turned away from the edge of town
I knew I was beaten, and that now was all I had ... God Said No
