Billboards quoting things you'd never say
you hang your head and pray
for Jesusland Jesusland

  4   4   4
town to town

 -45 56  -45  56    -45  56
Puls-es glow from their homes

  -6    6 -5   5    5     -4   4
You're not a-lone Lights come on

 4  -4  -4  -4   -4  4  -3   4   -4    4
as you lay your wea-ry head on their lawn

VERSE 4 SAME AS 1
Parking lots
cracked and growing grass you see it all
from offices to farms
crosses flying high above the malls
A longer walk through Jesusland Jesusland

ENJOY!!!
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
