DI thought I'd be happy in heaven
F#I thought it would be swell
GI thought I'd be happy in heaven
AIn fact I'm as unhappy as hell
DThe harps, they all bore me
F#St. Peter's jokes are a farce
GThe angels look down their noses
Abecause I'm from a different class
DSt. Mathews discovered religion
F#He converts people every day
GWhenever he gets near me
AI tell him to go away
DSt. Christopher, I've been rude to him
F#I told him what he could do with his staff
GI told him where he could stick it
AAnd he didn't laugh
DOnly old Mary is good'un
F#Yeah, she's a good sort
GShe's generous with everyone
AShe's a good sport
DmAnd God, he's a miserable bastard
F#mHe's always making up rules
GmI'm terribly disillusioned
AI think he's a silly old fool
DJesus, he plays the guitar
F#He sings like Joni Mitchell
GI thought I'd be happy in heaven
ABut in fact I'm unhappy as Dhell

F#m

I thought I'd be happy in heaven

I thought it would be swell

I thought I'd be happy in heaven

In fact I'm as unhappy as hell

The harps, they all bore me

St. Peter's jokes are a farce

The angels look down their noses

because I'm from a different class

St. Mathews discovered religion

He converts people every day

Whenever he gets near me

I tell him to go away

St. Christopher, I've been rude to him

I told him what he could do with his staff

I told him where he could stick it

And he didn't laugh

Only old Mary is good'un

Yeah, she's a good sort

She's generous with everyone

She's a good sport

And God, he's a miserable bastard

F#m

He's always making up rules

I'm terribly disillusioned

I think he's a silly old fool

Jesus, he plays the guitar

He sings like Joni Mitchell

I thought I'd be happy in heaven

A D

But in fact I'm unhappy as hell
