Chorus: 
E                   (w/u)      A           E 
George Jones and Jesus are two heroes of mine 
E      A     E                         B 
One is only human and the other one divine 
         E        A       E             A              E 
When I could not find a friend I found out that I had two 
A                 E     B           E 
George Jones and Jesus, pulled me through 
 
E 
When a man is on the bottle  
    A               E 
He may not cry for help 
E 
But he needs to know he's not alone  
                B 
In hell all by himself 
       E         A          E 
Those songs old George was singing 
      A                 E 
They somehow eased the hurt 
     A             E 
And Jesus did not turn me out 
        B                E 
When a bar room was my church

Now the possum ain't no savior 
       B                F# 
But he never claimed to be 
     F# 
And Jesus hung out with a crowd 
                   C# 
Of troubled souls like me 
               F#      B           F# 
Now you can't find a George Jones classic 
      B                 F# 
In a big black book of hymns 
         B                 F# 
But I'm living proof that Jesus saves 
 C#                      F#
