Hey John Prine thanks for the tunes,
              C
   They were sweet as peaches, crazy as loons.
         G
You were tellin’ us how to be good to each other,
       D
   You smartass smiling Aimless Lover.

         G
But it’s rough down here since we got the news,
      C
   Might take a miracle to Kill These Blues.
     G
Everybody been cryin like a little girl,
          D                  C     G
   In the whole wide Big Ol’ Goofy World.

[Chorus]
    C
But tonight heaven is a happier place,
             G
   They were all sick of singing Amazing Grace.
         D
Now it’s Fish and Whistle, Lean On Me,
     G
   Everybody singing in harmony.

  C
Tonight in heaven it must be nice,
           G
   They’re all eating peaches in Paradise.
 D
All of them angels lined up in a queue,
                         G
   Jus to go fishin with you.
   D                     G
   Jus to go fishin with you.
