Verse (Jesus)1:               G

When You feel sad or under a curse,

              A7

Your life is bad,



Your prospects are worse,

               D7

Your wife is sigh-ing, cry-ing, 



And your olive tree is dying.

G                        F#7

Temples are greying and teeth are decaying

     A7                      D7

And creditors weighing your purse!



Verse 2 (Jesus):

You bet that Job had nothing on you.

                   C      C#dim   G                D#7

Verse 1 (second vocalist):

              G

Doing what they please, 



Richer than the bees are in honey,

A7

Never growing old, never feeling cold,



Pulling pots of gold from the air.

The best in ev'ry town,



Best at shaking down, best at making mountains of money,

(slow)C               B7

They can't take it with them, 

     A7

But what do they care?

(speed up)     C

They get the center of the meat, 

Cushions on their seat,

Houses on a street where it's sunny.


A7                 

Summers at sea, winters warm and free,

            Am7

All of this we get the rest, but,

C            C#dim


Who is the land for, 

     G             D#7

The sun and the sand for?
