Father Father Father
You've seen me try and try to make her love me
I'd sell my soul to hear the one thing
She thinks she'll never say
But now it's Sunday Sunday Sunday
And her pretty voice is rising up to ask you
Like I once did like I'm about to
If you could show her the way

'Cause there's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl
And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world
Ab5                                C5                Ab5    C5   F5 Eb5

(intro x 3)

Father you of all gods ought to know how little to expect from people
But I think you might be pleasantly surprised to see what this girl
Would bring out of me

There's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl
And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world
