play verse as intro -  
 
 G               Em 
I have been out wandering  
 G               Em 
I have traveled far  
 G              Em 
One conclusion I have made  
    C         D     G 
Is God don't own a car  
 
He don't wear no fancy clothes - He'd rather take the bus  
He would pay a tourist fare - So he could sit with us  
 
He don't have no tamborine - Guitar or slide trombone  
The music we make here on Earth  - The words they are His own  
 
(one verse instrumental) 
 
And when we finally reach His home - And walk among the stars  
He'll join our band then we'll understand - Why God don't own a car  
 
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
