Mr Darwin

 
Am 
Mr. Darwin, I address you 
       Dm 
To the subject of this song 
  E7                 E 
I hope you're not offended 
       Am 
When I tell you that you're wrong 
             F 
But when you tell me that my ancestor's 
  C     G/B   Am 
A flower or a tree 
    Dm 
Mr. Darwin 
                E 
I have to disagree 
 

 
    Am 
You said that we were slimy once 
    Dm 
And crawled out of the sea 
    E7             E 
And though I am no scientist 
  Am 
I know that wasn't me 
        F 
I don't know just what possessed you 
       C           G/B    Am 
To say all the things you said 
         D7 
But when Jesus comes 
                      Gsus4  G 
Your face will sure be red 
 

 
           C 
For it was God who formed me from the dust 
    D7 
And gave my body shape 
      G7           G 
It is He who I descended from 
    C              C7 
And not some hairy ape 
          F 
And it is He that loves and cares for me 
     C      G/B     Am 
This much I know is true 
        Dm 
And Mr. Darwin 
E7                Am 
Jesus Christ loves you 
 

 
  Am 
I have a little dog at home 
     Dm 
He's got a lot to give 
    E7              E 
And though he is my little friend 
     Am 
He's not my relative 
           F 
And when I go into the zoo 
           C       G/B    Am 
To look at all the living things 
            D7 
It's just a visit 
                      Gsus4  G 
And not a family gathering 
 

 
           C 
For it was God who formed me from the dust 
    D7 
And gave my body shape 
      G7           G 
It is He who I descended from 
    C              C7 
And not some hairy ape 
          F 
And it is He that loves and cares for me 
     C      G/B     Am 
This much I know is true 
        Dm 
And Mr. Darwin 
E7                Am 
Jesus Christ loves you 
 

 
Dm           G 
I cannot condemn you 
        C                   F 
For the things you tried to say 
Dm            E7 
All I know is you and I 
     Am 
Were never made that way 
    Dm               E7 
And though my little furry friends 
     Am 
Show similarities 
D                D7           Gsus4  G E 
Let's not make a monkey out of me 
 

 
    Am 
Mr. Darwin, when the life you led 
   E7                E 
In heaven's court is tried 
  Dm                   E 
I hope you changed the tune you sang 
     Am              G 
Some time before you died 
            F 
'Cause when Jesus comes He's gonna take 
    C        G/B       Am7 
His children off the ground 
    D7 
And you're just gonna 
D               Gsus4  G 
Have to stick around 
 

 
           C 
For it was God who formed me from the dust 
    D7 
And gave my body shape 
      G7           G 
It is He who I descended from 
    C              C7 
And not some hairy ape 
          F 
And it is He that loves and cares for me 
     C      G/B     Am 
This much I know is true 
        Dm 
And Mr. Darwin 
    E7 
Mr. Darwin 
E                  Am 
Jesus Christ loves you
