(Verse 1)
C                              Fmaj7
All my heroes have gone to heaven

G                                    C
Where all them saints wear flaming shoes

C                                  Fmaj7             Am
The junkies and the whores are behind them pearly doors

I guess i'm going to go to heaven too

Now all my heroes have gone to heaven

G                                                C
Where all them richeous joes take to shoveling coal

C
The killers and the cons

Fmaj7                Am 
The pushers and the johns

G                                               C   C7
With halos, wings just hovering over paths of gold
(Chorus)
Fmaj7              C
so mama don't you cry

Fmaj7              C
when i'm dead and gone

Fmaj7                      Am
cause jesus loves his sinners

G                       C
and heaven is a honky tonk

Now all my heros have gone to heaven

G                                    C
The liars and the gamblers and the fools

C
The drunkards and the thieves

Fmaj7                         Am
All wearing silk upon their sleeves

G                                         C     C7
And every gal is like a silver pearl in bloom

So mama don't you cry

Fmaj7               C
When i'm dead and gone

Fmaj7                     G
Cause jesus loves his sinners

Fmaj7                   C
And heaven is a honky tonk

Fmaj7                   C
And heaven is a honky tonk
