Helena's handbasket made a fast getaway but McQueen she ain't. At the
courtroom Joshua judges her ruthlessly on account of Ruth walking out on
him. In the Big House Isabelle is a-telling all to the chaplain who's
become her friend. She says:
FIRST CHORUS:

I don't know why you care, I don't know what's out there. I don't know
C C F G F G
where or how, just take me to your Leader now. Take me to your Leader
now.
Verse 2 (Same guitar as Verse one)
Justin is adjustin' to the odor from Theodore's Evergreen Incense.
But aroma therapy don't make him any younger than Oliver's All Liver
Supplements. His late mate Merrilee merrily said immortality can't be
bought in a jar. This just in: Justin's had enough of cure-alls gonna
quiz the neighbor kid with the fish on his car. He says...
SECOND CHORUS:
G C C G C C G
I don't know why you care, I don't know what's out there. I don't know
C C F G G C
how it's done, just take me to your Leader, son. I see you've got the

joy, I've seen you live it, boy. It's real it's free it's fun, so take
G F G
me to your Leader, son. Take me to your Leader, son.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official NEWSBOYS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
