Intro: F G C D C A C D C A
A D A
It’s a funny world we live in, it’s funny everyday, uh-huh
D A
Half the world prays like a preacher, other half don’t even pray
E D
So no one understands you
A
If you pray in your own way, that’s what I say
(Chorus)
A D
So I’m stuck here in the middle
A
Everything is in a jam (In a jam baby)
D
Stuck right in the middle
A
Doors on both sides seem to slam
E D A
No one seems to want me, only God would take me like I am
D A
Well my brothers criticize me, say I’m just too strange to believe
Can you imagine that?
D A
And the others just avoid me, say my faith is so naive
E D A
I’m too sacred for the sinners and the saints wish I would leave
(Guitar Interlude same as verses)
(Chorus)
E D A
No one seems to want me, only God will take me like I am
E D A
No one seems to want me, only God will take me like I am
(Ending)
