Verse 1
Ab
Jesus, I said Jesus,
Eb
said Jesus Christ you're tall
I bet nobody, I bet nobody,
I bet nobody wanted to
Ab
dance with you at all
I said Jesus,
I said Jesus there hardly ain't
Eb
no one here for you at all
I said Jesus, I said Jesus,
Ab
I said Jesus Christ you're tall
Verse 2
Ab
We could dribble our way
down a courtship
Eb
Get married for a little while
I would shoot a little love inside your basket,
mama
Ab
And in a little while we'll have a child
Verse 3
Ab
He'd be a little boy, he'd be a little boy
Eb
But he'll get taller as the time goes by
He'd be a little boy, he'd be a little boy
But pretty soon he'll
hear the other boys cry
Ab
Because they're saying to him
Verse 4
Ab
Jesus, they'll say Jesus,
they'll say Jesus Christ you're tall
Eb
I bet some day,
Ab
at least some day I hope he finds a basketball
So maybe a big scout from a big town team
will come and sign him to
Bb
Eb
the meadow larks
And then someday,
Ab
someday he'll play as good as Van Dyke Parks
Verse 5
Ab
He'll be famous, he'll get married,
he'll be happy with the
Eb
girl next door
They'll have a little boy,
they'll have a little boy but at birth
Ab
he'll measure six foot four
Each generation as the time goes by
will grow and grow until
Eb
they reach the sky
And finally someday, I say someday,
they'll bump into God and He'll say "Hi"
Ab
Then He'll say, Jesus, Jesus look at 'em,
Eb
Jesus Christ they are tall
Jesus, just look at 'em, Jesus, hey,
Ab
you guys want to play a little basketball?
Verse 6
Ab
Da- da, da- da, da- da

Da- da, da, da- da, da- da, da- da
Ab
Da- da, da- da, da, da, da- da
Verse 7
Ab
There'll be a court up in Heaven
Fm
Eb
softer than the softest cloud
They can play all day,
they can play all night,
Ab
they can play as long as they can play
Be a half- court game until
the other boys
Eb
show, it'll be a full court game and then
Ab
Then it's over with your high score,
Eb
it'll be over and then "Amen"

c'mon, shoot that ball
C'mon, Jesus let's sure play it, now

You can play as long as you like
You're in Heaven,
now Heaven that's the Hell of it, baby,
