Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
He  Came to town on an old  freight train,
 He jumped  off in the pouring  rain.
Everybody  said he's insane,
 Just a low  down no account hobo.
He  make his bed beneath the country  bridge,
 The city  folks said hey  that's not his.
They  signed a petition they're gonna  get rid,
 Of that low  down, no count white  trash.
What  if Jesus comes back  like that,
 On an old  freight train in a hobo hat.
Will  we, let him in or turn  our back.
What  if Jesus comes back  like that,
Oh  what if Jesus comes back  like that.
 Guitar:  |  |  |
 Vs.2
She  was born into drug  abuse,
 she  couldn't help what her  mamma used.
It  wasn't like she  got to choose,
 Now she's  layin' there all alone.
Got  a monkey on her  back,
 nurses  sat they never saw a  smile like that.
Doctor  says she might stand  a chance,
 if somebody  takes her  home.
What  if Jesus comes back  like that,
 two months  early hooked  on crack.
Will  we, let him in or turn  our back.
What  if Jesus comes back  like that,
Oh  what if Jesus comes back  like that.
Nobody  said life is fair,
we've  all got a cross to bear.
When  it gets a little  hard to care,
 just think  about him hanging  there.
 Vs.3
He  came to town on a cold  dark night
 a single star his  only light.
The  baby born that silent  night,
 a manger  for his  bed.
What  if Jesus comes back  like that,
 where will  he find our hearts  are  at.
Will  he let us in or turn  his back.
What  if Jesus comes back  like that.
 Will he  cry when he sees where our  hearts are  at,
Will  he, let us in or turn  his back.
What  if Jesus comes back  like that.
Hey  what if Jesus comes  back  like  that.
