Capo on the 2nd fret on this one.  With the G and C/G changes in the verses you
       G    C/G           G  C/ G   G  C/G  
Lost my girl on Monday
          G    C/G          G  C/ G   G  C/G  
Lookin for some sympathy
GI went to cC/Ghurch direcEmtly
The Lord was not Cthere for me
Didn't go to work on Tuesday
Got to drinking around noon
I lost my heart to a mean bartender
She knocked me off my stool
Chorus
CNow the Dworlds spinnin round
Too Emfast and wrong
Won't you Amlet me off on the Ccorner
Am (not exactly sure about chrd, but it works for me)
                                G    C/G     G  C/ G   G  C/G  
needs is a little push in that direction
I lost my job on Friday
Said I lacked the discipline
I went to church directly
Peter said he's not in
I hit the bar on Sunday
Looking for some discipline
I sold my soul to the mean bartender
She said I'm born again
Chorus again, but instead of "that direction" substitute
Cyou time it just right
                                       G ( and so on with the C/G and G)
you could send me to the loins tonight
