E A
I saw a garage sale, pulled up in the yard
E B
Found a statue of Jesus that was eight feet tall
E A
He held out his arms and he seemed all alone
E A B
So I loaded him up and I drove him home
Out by my driveway, he looks down the street
Long hair and sandals made of rebar and concrete
I painted him white with a long purple robe
He's the rock of ages on a gravel road
Chorus:
E B A E
He's an 800 pound Jesus
A B
Standing taller than a tree
E B A E
He's an 800 pound Jesus
A B E
A bigger man than you or me
I felt losing my job was the end of the world
Till my best pal ran off with my best girl
I felt suicidal with no real friends
So I walked outside with a rope in my hands
Out by that statue, there's a big oak tree
So I stood on his shoulders and I counted to three
I had every intention of buying the farm
But when I jumped off he caught me in his arms
Chorus
I wanted to return the favor to him
Cause I've never had a more solid friend
So I planted some flowers all around his feet
And I bought him a flock of ceramic sheep
Chorus
He's a bigger man than you or me
