(Verse) 
A5              B5               C5
City sidewalk, bright Saturday morning 
A5                 B5             C5
Beggar with a halo shuffles up to me 
A5                                  B5                    C5
He asks me for a coin, and mumbles, "Thank you, and God bless you." 
A5                      B5           C5
Good deeds and halos not sure what I believe. 
F#5
He asks me, "Is there something I can give back to you? 
F#5
How 'bout this halo for an hour or two?" And now I'm... 

Refr?o -------------
A5                          B5        C5
Sneakin' into heaven with a borrowed halo 
A5                      B5        C5
Hopin' no one notices my broken wings 
A5                                       B5          C5
Peekin' through these gates and thinkin' Lord have mercy! 
F#5
I'm never gonna make it if it's up to me!

(Verse) 
A5               B5            C5
'Postle Peter, taps me on my shoulder 
A5                            B5                C5
Says, "are you lost?" I say, "Can you show me around?" 
A5                              B5                        C5
"Well, I'd be glad to! Tell me, what brings you to heaven today?" 
A5                            B5            C5
"I've always wondered what the fuss is all about." 
F#5
I feel like a kid flashin' a fake I.D. 
F#5
Tryin' to slip past the Authority! And now I'm... 

(Repeat Chorus) 


A5                B5                C5
Hey Mr. Pedro, I have a little confession 
A5                           B5           C5
I don't belong here, and this halo isn't mine 
A5                          B5                   C5
Peter laughs and says, "Well, boy, haven't you noticed? 
A5                        B5                     C5
We've all been broken, but now we're doin' just fine! 
F#5
'Cause nobody's good enough, and up here we're all the same. 
F#5
We all get to heaven under Someone Else's name!" 

(Repeat Chorus x2)
