          It was said this Man was of no reputation 
             Em              F 
Yet he could stop the rising storm 
       Em             Gsus  G 
With a gesture of his hand 
        C                F        C 
But he chose to use his hands to heal 
  G/B   Am   G   F      C/E   Gm  
   F   E 
       Hearts of darkness,     hearts of stone 
Dm             C          F      C 
   Just like mine, would be revealed

            He was a Man of no reputation 
             Cmaj7/E              Fmaj7 
And by the  wise,  considered a  fool 
         C                       F/C 
When he spoke about faith and forgiveness 
     Gsus                          G 
In a time  when the strongest arms ruled 
 
         F             C 
But this Man of no reputation 
              Am          G           F      C/E 
Loved the weak    with relentless affection 
             C/D                  Cmaj7/E                Fmaj7 
     And he loved all those poor in   spirit just as they were 
        Gsus     G    C       F/C 
He was a man of no    reputation 
 
C  G7sus  C  F 
 
It was said this Man brought only confusion 
That He'd achieve His ends by any means 
That the truth would bring revolution 
And for once they were right 
The truth set us free 
 
The hearts of the captive were His only concern 
And the powerful knew their days were ending 
 
He was a man of no reputation 
By the wise, considered a fool 
Where he spoke about faith and forgiveness 
In a time when the strongest arms ruled 
 
But this man of no reputation 
Loved the weak with relentless affection 
And he loved all those poor in spirit just as they were 
He was a man of no reputation

One day soon the gates of Heaven will open wide 
          E2       Dm7                          Gsus  G 
And the Prince of Peace will come back for His bride 
                C 
But for now we live on these streets 
   F/C            C 
Forbidding and tough 
      Em7                    F2 
Where push always comes to shove 
         D#maj7              Gsus  G 
And it's said love's never enough 
           C                             F      C     G/B 
Where a prophet in rags gives hope to a fearful world 
Am  G F       C/E    Gm   F    
        Dm 
No  injustice,     no heart of darkness 
     C                    F     C 
Will keep this voice from being heard 
 
He was a man of no reputation

Loves us all    with relentless affection 
         C/D                Cmaj7/E        Fmaj7 
And he loves all us poor in   spirit, come as you are

To the Man of no reputation
