Ian Gillan Heaven On Their Minds Lyrics

Judas My mind is clearer now - at last all to well
I can see where we all soon will be
If you strip away the myth from the man
You will see where we all soon will be
Jesus! You've started to believe
The things they say of you
You really do believe
This talk of God is true
And all the good you've done
Will soon get swept away
You've begin to matter more
Than the things you say

Dm F
Listen Jesus I don't like what I see
Dm G
All I ask is that you listen to me
B C F A
And remember - I've been your right hand man all along
Dm B
You have set them all on fire
F
They think they've found the new Messiah
Gm A Dm
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong

I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of God then - we called you a man
And believe me - my admiration for you hasn't died
But everyword you say today
Gets twisted round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied

B F Gm Dm
Nazareth your famous son should have stayed a great unknown
Gm Dm A Dm
Like his father carving wood - he'd have made good
B F Gm Dm
Tables chairs and oaken chests would have suited Jesus best
Gm Dm A Dm
He'd have caused nobody harm - no-one alarm

Listen, Jesus, do you care for your race!
Don't you see we must keep in our place?
We are occupied - have you forgotten how put down
we are?
I'm frightened by the crowd
For we are gettin much too loud
And they'll crush us if we go too far
Listen, Jesus, to the warning I give
Please, remember that I want us to live
But it's sad to see our chances weakening with
every hoor
All your followers are blind
Too much heaven on their minds
It was beautiful but now it's sour
Yes it's all gone sour
