B5

Come now and listen babe



D5                    A5

   I gotta reason why I behave



B5

    Like a child with a light in eyes



         D5               E5    F#5

Running naked on a cold winter night



B5

    Like a pigeon that's spreadin' his wings 



   D5           A5

to fly away to better things



B5

    Like a hammer that has made a dent



   D5                   E5          F#m        G

in every little single cent you’ve spent



             B                                        G

Said oh God     you’ve got to help me a little bit



 B           

you’ve got to have a relief file for me



B5

Now I know I’m always right, that’s a



D5                       A5

thought that never even crossed my mind



           B5 

Don’t touch me there I’ve gotta be pure



     D5                  E5        F#m

So smack that hand, and read this verse



B5                          D5        A5

    So I wrecked your life, what the heck



   B5                   D5          E5    F#5  Bm  G

My new found faith will     pay by check



E  G       Bm                       G     A

     This life’s took a toll on my soul



Bm   G         E  G         Bm

Oh_______yeah________ this life's took a toll on my soul



G A  Bm G  E G  Bm    G A  Bm G  E G  Bm   G A G



So this is me and that’s my song

And I guess that you can see that we don’t get along

I’ve shut the doors on what we had

so now she can sleep with her Dear ol’ Dad

my eyes are dry and my hands are clean

and I can’t believe all the things I’ve seen

-Chorus-

Oh My God!!
