[Verse 1]
G
Tell me Father what’s the craic
C D
Is Jesus really coming back
G Em
And if he does d'ye think he'll live here in the 'burbs?
G
Cos I’d like to help out round the place
C D
A few odd jobs for holy grace
G
And I'll even let you preach your strange old words
[Verse 2]
G
For I’ve been a Godless fool
C D
They thrashed it outta me at school
G Em
And I swore id never take a knee again
G
But if you can guarantee me there’s
C D
A heaven up & a hell down there
G
My wicked sinful ways I'll seek to mend
[Chorus]
G C D
If all them stars above are saints in some accord
G C G
And Les Darcy is among em, then I'll make peace with the Lord

[Verse 3]
G
I were spat on, I were beat
C D
I were tossed into the street
G Em
Where I lay cackling in the filthy bloody rain
G
I went from bar to bar
C D
Callin dogs jus what they were
G
Until the next one tried to slap me round the brains
[Verse 4]
G
A bottle of cheap whisky was the key
C D
Unlocking beasts inside o' me
G Em
That oughtn't see the light of day
G
I'd shower on all fours
C D
Go punch holes in all the doors
G
And drag my heart around like it were dying prey
[Chorus]
G C D
If all them stars above are saints in some accord
G
And Les Darcy is among em, then I'll make peace with the Lord

[Verse 5]
G
I’ve heard him called so many things
C D
'Hey-Sue Christy' 'King of Kings'
G Em
Is it Mister, Father, Son or Holy Ghost?
G
He could turn the water into wine
C D
And we can have a laugh about the time
G
He popped up on that old dears slice o' toast
[Verse 6]
G
I’ve been around & seen some things
C D
Slept with witches, fought for Kings
G Em
And I’ve sung a song o' joy in many lands
G
But if my dog can’t get to Heaven
C D
While some mongrels go on livin'
G C G
I'm not sure he's got the whole world in his hands
[Chorus]
G C D
If all them stars above are saints in some accord
G D G
And Les Darcy is among em, then I'll make peace with the Lord
G C D
If all them stars above are saints in some accord
G D G
And Les Darcy is among em, then I'll make peace with the Lord
G D G
If Roy Williamson’s among em, then I'll make peace with the Lord
G C G
If Burnsey is among em, then I'll make peace with the Lord
G C D G
If my Grandad Bill’s among em, then I'll make peace with you Lord
