[Verse 1]
G                              
I been thinkin' lately about the 
    C       G
people I  meet
     C             G              
The carwash on the corner and the 
D
hole in the street
     G                        C
The way my ankles hurt with shoes on
 my feet
         G               D        
And I'm wondering if I'm gonna see
    G
 tomorrow

[Chorus]
G                       C         
Father forgive us for what we must 
 G
do
C           G   D
You forgive us, we'll forgive you
 G                              
We'll forgive each other till we 
  C
both turn blue
            G              D      
Then we'll whistle and go fishin' 
    G
in Heaven

[Verse 2]
G                        C       
I was in the Army but I never dug
    G
 a trench
C                  G         
I used to bust my knuckles on a 
    D
monkey wrench
    G                          C
I'd go to town and drink and give 
the girls a pinch
       G                D      
But I don't think they ever even 
   G
noticed me

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???

[Verse 3]
      G                      C
On my very first job I said "thank 
you" and "please"
      C              G         
They made me scrub a parking lot 
   D
down on my knees
G                     C
Then I got fired for being scared of
 bees
         G             D          
And they only give me fifty cents 
    G
an hour

[Chorus]
G                       C         
Father forgive us for what we must 
 G
do
C           G   D
You forgive us, we'll forgive you
 G                              
We'll forgive each other till we 
  C
both turn blue
            G              D      
Then we'll whistle and go fishin' 
    G
in Heaven
