I slept through Easter yesterday

Dadd9/F#        Em7                Dadd9/F#        Em7
right through Christmas just the same

     Dadd9/F#        Em7                  Dadd9/F#        Em7  
the priest came up to me all up in arms

         Dadd9/F#        Em7                Dadd9/F#        Em7
he said, "devil boy what have you done?"

for heaven's sake

G            D5/A
it's only been 2000 years

and I can't wait any

longer for you

1:26- 1:58

Dadd9/F#     Em7             Dadd9/F#           Em7   
the Jesuits rolled in their tanks to my front door

         Dadd9/F#         Em7       Dadd9/F#   Em7   
while the Capuchins held a love-in on my front porch

        Dadd9/F#             Em7                 Dadd9/F#           Em7   
the Augustinians kept to themselves, stuck their tongues out in a row

            Dadd9/F#        Em7              Dadd9/F#        Em7   
they said, "devil boy, it's off to Hell you go!"

2:42- 3:15

Dadd9/F#    Em7              Dadd9/F#           Em7   
and so I'll sit and pray for her to call me there

       Dadd9/F#           Em7             Dadd9/F#           Em7   
and I'll burn that bridge a 1000 times, on the cross I bear

       Dadd9/F#          Em7             Dadd9/F#           Em7   
just to wonder if you're listening from a soap box in the sky

   Dadd9/F#     Em7         Dadd9/F#        Em7   
to finally realize my price, was it you or I?

 If you would come  back to me

G                         D5/A
 If you would come  back to me

G                          D5/A
 If you would come  back to me

G                          D5/A
 If you would come back to me
