Paul Thorn - Mission Temple Fireworks Stand

      [Intro]
C

[verse 1]
C
I saw a black man with a bible And a sparkler in his hand.
                                  G
He was holding a tent revival And running a firework stand.
            C
He said the end of the world is coming
       F
So you better get on your knees.
      C                                   G           C
Today bottle rockets are two for one, but salvation's free.

[verse 2]
C
He said I quit my job at a big church

Where the milk and money flowed,
                                    G
To sell cherry bombs for Jesus in a tent beside the road.
        C                         F
I ain't in it for the money, most cars pass on by.
      C                                 G         C
But I pay the rent on New Years and the fourth of July.

[verse 3]
C
He said fireworks are dangerous. They can blow up in your face.
                                               G
So you better read the instructions, light the fuse and get away.
      C                         F
These things are made in China, so it's easy to see,
C                                   G
How a man who worships Buddha ain't got no guarantee.

[verse 4]
C
He said everything I'm selling is all going up in smoke.
                                 G
This world is like an atom bomb, it's ready to explode.
C
When the trumpet sounds And The Lord comes back
F
I promise you one thing.
C                                         G         C
I'll be a human bottle rocket and I'll go out with a bang.

I'll leave this,
