I Wonder How John Felt (When He Baptized Jesus)
Recorded by George Jones
Written by Billy Sherrill, Norro Wilson, Carmol Taylor

C                            F                              C
Do you remember how you felt when you kissed your brand new bride
                                             D7                 G7
Or the feeling that ran through you when you held your new born child
    C                        F                     C
And when he called you daddy did you feel ten feet tall
                                           G7                     C
Well I heard about a man who must have had the greatest thrill of all

                          F                C
John was just an ordinary man like you and me
                                D7             G7
And he did lotta preaching near the Sea of Galilee
     C
Well he must have been a pretty good preacher 
      F                      C
Cause he sure could tell the news
                                              G7              C
But he said there's a man coming after me and I can't tie His shoes

                                        F
I wonder how John felt when he baptized Jesus
                     C              D7             G7
How did he feel when Jesus came and said let it be done
C                                             F
I wonder how John felt when he led Him in the water
                        C           G7                 C
Don't you know it was a blessin' to baptize God's only Son

                                   F            C
John talked to a lot of people and many saw the light
                                      D7               G7
But what about walking up and shaking hands with Jesus Christ
  C                          F                C
I wonder if he trembled when he first saw the Man
                                          G7                   C
Don't you know he felt the spirit when he touched the Master's Hand
