Few bands in any genre can claim a Grammy nomination for every album they have recorded. Big Tent Revival is one such band. But even with three critically acclaimed albums, numerous Dove and Grammy nominations, and a slew of #1 radio hits to their credit, they insist that the accolades, while affirming, are not the reason the band exists.

TWO SETS OF JONES'
By
Big Tent Revival
This is a really cool song, message wise, this isn't exactly how it's
played on the record, but I haven't taken the time to transcribe it note
for note, given how long it takes me to import a single line on my Mac.
If you want to know how to play these chords, as they may look
intimidating for some, or have corrections, E Mail me [email protected]
I play this two ways, depending on my mood. The real song I believe, is
played with a capo at the 4th fret.
VERSE
E B/D# C#m B
This here's a story about two sets of Joneses
E B/D# C#m B
Rothschild, Evelyn Reuben and Sue
E B/D# C#m B
Just for discussion, through random selection
A/E B A/E E
We've chosen two couples who haven't a clue
VERSE
Rothschild was lucky to marry so wealthy
And Evelyn bought him a house on the beach
Reuben and Sue, they had nothin' but Jesus
And at night they would pray that He'd care for them each
CHORUS
C#m A/E E
And the rains came down
C#m A/E E
And it blew the four walls down
C#m A/E E C#m
And the skies they rolled away
A/E B
One set of Joneses
A/E E
Were standing that day
Evelyn's daddy was proud of young Rothschild
Worked the late hours to
be number one
Just newlyweds, and their marriage got rocky
He's flying to Dallas, she's having a son
Reuben was holding Gideons Bible
When he screamed "It's a boy!" so that everyone heard
And the guys at the factory, took a collection...
And again, God provided for bills they'd incurred
CHORUS again
BRIDGE
Amaj7 E
So what is the point of my story?
Amaj7 E
What am I trying to say?
E E/D# C#m C#m/B
Well is your life built on the Rock of Christ Jesus
B
Or a sandy foundation you've managed to lay?
Well needless to say, Evelyn left her husband
And sued him for every penny he had
I truly wish that those two would find Jesus
Before things get worse than the already have
CHORUS
OUTRO
A/E B
There's two sets of Joneses
A/E B E
Which one.....will.....you be?
