[Verse]

   Em        C    G              D
If God had a name, what would it be?
              Em             C
And would you call it to his face, 
G            D
if you were faced with him?
   Em      C      G              D
In all his glory, what would you ask,
           Em       C     G     D
if you had just one question?

       Em        C      G   D
Just a slob like one of us?
      Em       C      G

make his way home

[Verse]

  Em        C    G              D
If God had a face, what would it look 
like 
          Em          C
And would you want to see,
G         D                    Em      
if seeing meant that you would have to 
 C
believe, 
  G           D             Em        
in things like heaven and in Jesus and 
   C          G       D
the saints and all the prophets

[Pre-Chorus]

C           G      D
Yeah, yeah, God is great 
C           G      D
Yeah, yeah, God is good
C           D
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

        Em      C      G   D
What if God was one of us?
       Em        C      G   D
Just a slob like one of us?
      Em       C      G             
Just a stranger on the bus trying to 
D            Em   C   G
make his way home

          D            Em   C   G
Trying to make his way home...
           D           Em   C   G
Like up to heaven all alone...
       D              Em    C   G
Nobody calling on the phone...
               D               C
Except for the Pope, maybe in Rome.

Except for the Pope, maybe in Rome.
