Intro:C5 run down A5 G5 F5 G5 
 
C5                   A5 
Every sunday in my momma's church 
F5                            G5 
I'd sneak some money out of momma's purse 
C5                              A5 
While she was praying I would slip away 
F5                          G5 
Down at the pool hall I'd play all day 
C5                            A5 
I'd meet her home and she'd just shake her head  
F5                             G5 
Your fluffing pillows on the devil's bed 
C5                   A5 
I'd say mom I know just how you feel 
F5                           G5 
But I made enough to cover all our bills  
 

F5                      G5 
To bad for heaven and to good for hell 
C5                        A5  
Little wings are better than big tails 
F5                         G5 
I don't expect to sit at god's right hand  
C5                       A5            F5 
I could empty heavens garbage cans whoa ohh 
F5              G5                      C5 
Hope their is room on those golden streets 
F5                    G5             C5 
For stray dogs and alley cats like me  
 
Intro: 
C5                           A5 
If they won't let me in the big front gate 
F5              G5 
Maybe I can go in the backway 
C5                         A5 
I know my halo wouldn't shine real bright 
F5                                 G5 
But it would get me through the clouds at night 
C5                            A5 
And I don't care if I'm the last to sing  
F5                          G5 
Ref I've got the smallest set of wings 
C5                               A5 
I'd watch those little devil's down on earth 
F5                             G5 
And follow them when they'd sneak out of church
