verse 1 

D            
Today is a good day to flex the muscles of the weary 
      A 
A miracle's a miracle even when it's ordinary 
        G 
We will walk on the water even though it seems scary 
   D                        A 
If someone will show us the way

verse 2 
D 
I shook hands with the man who honestly thinks he's 
      A 
The grandson of Jesus with the penchant for pinchies 
   G 
He served us communion of cola and twinkies 
        D                    A 
Guess everyone has their own view 

verse 3 
    D  
He stood on his soap box and told us a parable 
     A 
Of a man with eyeglasses so small they're unwearable 
        G 
And the moral of the story is it all looks terrible 
     D                     A                      G  
Depending on what you look through, what you look through

verse 4 
         D 
He said "do unto yourself as you do unto your neighbor 
            A 
It's not an eye for an eye, it's a favor for a favor 
         G 
And it's okay if this world had a billion saviors 
               D                    A 
'Cause there's so many things to be saved 


Verse 5 
D 
Take my words with a boulder of salt 
   A 
Or blame it on your devil, always the scapegoats fault 
   G 
We all point fingers when it comes to a halt 
    D                    A                G 
Can somebody show us the way, show us the way
