Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu "A Little Story" oleh Daniel Johnston.

C
There was this big Guy
C7                         F
And He had a great idea.
C
He built Himself a world
                                 G
And He put people on it.

C
But the people they turned wicked,
C7                      F
And they soon forgot
C
Who had made their very being
                              G
And put them on their planet.

C
So the God He sent His very own Son,
C7                   F
His only holy Son.
C
And He sent Him to the world
                                           G
'cause something had to be done.

C
His son walked around and He told the truth
C7                                      F
Like the truth had never been told.
C
He was kind to the poor,
                          G
His home was the road.

C
Unlike any other heroes
C7                                   F
Of which a song could be sung,
C
He never did bad to anyone.
                              G
He never did no harm.

C
But there were other people who weren't so nice
C7                                      F
And they plotted to take His life
C
And the Man knew all about it
                             G
But He didn't even hide.

C
And they beat Him and they robbed Him
C7                                        F
And they hung Him for bein' good.
C
And they laughed and made jokes
                                 G
While they stood in his blood.

C
But there's a happy ending to the story.
C7                                       F
I think you'll be glad to know
C
He came back to life in glory,
                                         G
And up from the grave He arose.

C
So before you turn out your light,
C7                         F
Remember this one Man
C
Who lived comfortably in heaven
                                               G
But gave it all up to hang on a cross.

C
Because He hung for you and me
C7                              F
And He came to set us free.
                  C
'Cause his Dad had a great idea
                                               G    C
About the way things ought to be
