[Verse]
G#m
Well, all's not well but I'm told that it'll all be quite nice

             G
You'll be drowned in boots like mafia

              Em
But your feet will still float like Christ's

                              G
Well, I'll be damned

                    Em
They were right

                      G#m
I'm drowning upside down

G#m
My feet afloat like Christs'

  G
I'm in heaven trying to figure out which sack
They're going to stuff us sinners into
                                                 Em       G
And Peter and his monkey laugh and I'll laugh with them

                       Em
I'm not sure what at

                    G
They point and say…

                                G#m
"We'll keep you in the back,"

                 Em         G#m           G
Polishing halos… baking manna and gas
(Play intro riffs once) [Verse]
N.C.          G
Well, some guy comes in looking a bit like everyone I ever seen
He moves just like Crisco disco Breathing a hundred per-cent Listerine
G
He says looking at something else but directing everything to me
"Any time anyone gets on their knees to pray
             G#m
Well, it makes my telephone ring!" and I'll be damned
G (softly) He said "you were right, no one's running this whole thing" Em (still softly) He had a theory, too G [Outro]
                   Em                           G
He said that God takes care of himself, God takes care of himself
Him or you Bm
               Em                             G
He said that God takes care of himself, God takes care of himself
Him or you Bm
            Em                            G
He said that God takes care of himself, God takes care of himself
Him or you Intro riff again ************************************ | p Pull-off ************************************
