Verse 1:
     C                      G         C  
It seems I've imagined Him all of my life  
         F        C          G  
As the wisest of all of mankind  
        F           C         G         Am G F  
But if God's holy wisdom is foolish to man  
                    Gsus G      C  
He must have seemed out of His mind  
     F         C     G          C  
For even His family said He was mad  
          F              C         Gsus G  
And the priest said, 'A demon's to blame,'  
    F           C           G           Am  G F  
So God in the form of this angry young man  
                      Gsus G     C      >(run to F)  
Could not have seemed perfectly sane  
  
  
     F           C           G              C G/B  
When we in our foolishness thought we were wise  
Am                         F         
He played the fool and He opened our eyes  
C                F         G/B              Am  
When we in our weakness believed we were strong  
             F         G            C      >(run to F)  
He became helpless to show we were wrong  
    F       C     G         C  
And so we follow God's own fool  
      F        C         Gsus G  
For only the foolish can tell  
   F         C   G   Am  G F  
Believe the unbelievable  
              Gsus G    C  
And come be a fool as well  

  
Verse 2:
  
    C                        G/B         C 
So come lose your life for a carpenter's Son  
      F           C          G/B 
For a madman who died for a dream  
     F                C                G/B     Am 
Then you'll have the faith His first followers had  
     F               G             C 
And you'll feel the weight of the beam  
     F             G                      C 
So surrender the hunger to say you must know  
          F                 G/B 
And the courage to say I believe  
         F         C      G/B      Am G 
Let the power of paradox open your eyes  
F                    G            C 
And blind those who say they can see  
  
  
     F           C           G              C G/B  
When we in our foolishness thought we were wise  
Am                         F         
He played the fool and He opened our eyes  
C                F         G/B              Am  
When we in our weakness believed we were strong  
             F         G            C      >(run to F)  
He became helpless to show we were wrong  
    F       C     G         C  
And so we follow God's own fool  
      F        C         Gsus G  
For only the foolish can tell  
   F         C   G   Am  G F  
Believe the unbelievable  
              Gsus G    C  
And come be a fool as well   

  
End:  
    F       C     G         C  
And so we follow God's own fool  
      F        C         Gsus G  
For only the foolish can tell  
   F         C   G   Am  G F  
Believe the unbelievable  
              Gsus G    C  
And come be a fool as well
