G C G I been thinkin' lately about the people I meet C G D The carwash on the corner and the hole in the street G C The way my ankles hurt with shoes on my feet G D G And I'm wondering if I'm gonna see tomorrow

[Verse 2]
G C G I was in the Army but I never dug a trench C G D I used to bust my knuckles on a monkey wrench G C I'd go to town and drink and give the girls a pinch G D G But I don't think they ever even noticed me
[Chorus]
G C G Father forgive us for what we must do C G D You forgive us, we'll forgive you G C We'll forgive each other till we both turn blue G D G Then we'll whistle and go fishin' in Heaven

D Fish and whistle, whistle and fish G Eat everything that they put on your dish C G And when we get through, we'll make a big wish A7 D7 That we never have to do this again, Again? Again???

G C G On my very first job I said "thank you" and "please" C G D They made me scrub a parking lot down on my knees G C Then I got fired for being scared of bees G D G And they only give me fifty cents an hour
