    Jesus Christ was a man that traveled through the land,
                                         B7
    a carpenter, true and brave.
      E                                          A                  E
    Said to the rich, "Give your goods to the poor",
                                      B7              E
    so they laid Jesus Christ in His grave.

  A                              E
Jesus was a man, a carpenter by hand,
                                B7
carpenter true and brave.
            E                                    A           E
And a dirty little coward called Judas Iscariot,
                      B7              E
laid Jesus Christ in His grave.

             E                                   A                   E
    The people of the land took Jesus by the hand,
                                               B7
    they followed Him far and wide.
        E                                  A                    E
   "I come not to bring you peace, but a sword",
                                         B7             E
    so they killed Jesus Christ on the sly.

     E                                     A                E
    He went to the sick, he went to the poor,
                                                           B7
    and he went to the hungry and the lame.
      E                                     A                        E
    Said that the poor would one day win the world,
                                      B7              E
    so they laid Jesus Christ in His grave.

      E                                          A                E
    One day Jesus stopped at a rich man's door.
                                        B7
    "What must I do to be saved?"
       E                                   A                  E
    "Sell all your goods and give it to the poor",
                                      B7               E
    so they laid Jesus Christ in His grave.

               E                                           A                E
    They nailed Him there to die on a cross in the sky,
                                                              B7
    in the lightning, the thunder and the rain.
      E                            A            E
    Judas Iscariot committed suicide,
                                      B7                E
    when they laid poor Jesus in his grave.

                     E                                 A                         E
    When the love of the poor shall some day turn to hate,
                                                                       B7
    when the patience of the workers gives away,
                        E                                    A                        E
    it would be better for you rich if you never had been born,
                                      B7              E
    so they laid Jesus Christ in His grave.

             E                              A              E
    This song was written in New York City,
                                                  B7
    of rich man, preachers, and slaves.
       E                                               A                     E
    Jesus was to preach what He preached in Galilee,
                                           B7              E
    they would lay Jesus Christ in His grave.
