Biografía:
Lydia Loveless (born September 4, 1990; as Lydia Ankrom) is an American alternative country singer-songwriter from Columbus, Ohio.
Blessed with a commanding, blast-it-to-the-back-of-the room voice, Loveless was raised on a family farm in Coshocton, Ohio, US—a small weird town with nothing to do but make music. With a dad who owned a country music bar, Loveless often woke up with a house full of touring musicians scattered on couches and floors.

Jesus was a Wino too
Lydia Loveless
Intro
C G F C
[Verse 1]
C
Well, some days you wake up
G
and life feels meaningless
You don’t even have the strength
C
to get up and get dressed
Then when you do, you see your
G
clothes are all torn to shreds
And you can’t even afford to buy
C
a needle and thread
C
So, you might go to church to
G
bow your head and pray
But that ain’t always enough to
C
get through the day
Sometimes you’ll feel bitter, you’ll
G
say that this priest is a mooch
And you might just take all of
C
your tithes with a bottle of hooch
[Chorus]
F
And if people knew, they would
C
look down on you
G
Don’t they know that it’s true?
F G C
Jesus was a wino, too
[Verse 2]
C
People may ask, “Why have your
G
lips turned black?”
“Hey, what the hell is so funny,
man? Why have your eyes gone
C
slack?“
They might feel high and mighty
G
when I can barely stand
Well, just tell them I couldn’t turn
down one my glass of the blood
C
of the lamb
[Chorus]
F
Because if people knew, they
C
would call me a fool
G
I wish they knew it was true:
F C
Jesus was a wino, too was a Wino too
[Chorus]
F
Because if people knew, they
C
would call me a fool
G
I wish they knew it was true:
F C
Jesus was a wino, too
[Verse 3]
F
And this here six-dollar bottle is
C
just about that all I can afford
D
If I can’t find a corkscrew, I’ll just
G
smash it open right here on the
floor
C
And you might call me crazy for
G
lapping this off the ground
But a few years ago I would be
C
drinking with Jesus right now
‘Cause they may not have had
G
Carlo Rossi way back in his day
Jesus had only water but he
F C
turned it to wine anyway
[Chorus]
F
And nobody asked, “What would
C
Jesus do?”
G F
‘Cause everybody knew Jesus
C
was a wino, too
F
No, nobody asked, “What would
C
Jesus do?”
G F
‘Cause everybody knew Jesus
C
was a wino, too
C F C F
Ah huhhhhhh ah huh
