 G  
 Go tell the sheriff John Roland Wood's found Jesus  
          C             D           G  
 Now he's living at the foot of the cross  
 G  
 He testified on the main drag this evening  
           C                D             D  
 Said he?s gonna spread the gospel to the lost  
   
 D                     C             G   
 The meanest sinner to ever live and breath  
 D                        C           G    
 Said he's been clean and sober for a week  
 D                        C           G  
 He said his soul was not troubled anymore  
 D                              C            D  
 He hocked his gun and gave the money to the lord  
   
   
 Go tell the sheriff John Roland Wood's found Jesus  
 In a tent revival outside of town  
 Oh what a friend this town has in Jesus  
 If you look at what John Roland had torn down  
   
 Before the spirit touched his soul  
 He left the street sides full of bulletholes  
 Back then when he was raising hell  
 He knew it was coming the blue lights on his tail  
 Look out now  
   
 Solo  
   
 Go tell the sheriff John Roland Wood's found Jesus  
 Now that water tower must be full of wine  
 Let not your weary heart be troubled  
 Turn your women and your Children back outside  
   
 What will we do on Friday night  
 Without John Roland shooting out the light  
 Carry that old Jukebox away  
 He traded mean guy for amazing grace  
   
 Go tell the sheriff John Roland Wood's found Jesus  
 Now he's living at the foot of the cross
