Sneakin' Into Heaven
Chris Rice
NOTE- much of the song is picked with a bass background- it's mostly correct as I see 
let me know if you come up with something else.  Peace.
Intro- Palm muted chug on the B chord
(Verse)
BCity sidewalk, Dbright Saturday Amorning
BBeggar with a halo Dshuffles up tAo me
BHe asks me for a coin, and mumbles, D"Thank you, and God bAless you."
BGood deeds and halos not Dsure what I Abelieve.
F#He asks me, "Is there something I can give back to you?
F#How 'bout this halo for an hour or two?" And now I'm...
(Chorus)
BSneakin' into heaven with a Dborrowed Ahalo
BHopin' no one notices my Dbroken wAings
BPeekin' through these gates and thinkin' DLord have mAercy!
F#I'm never gonna make it if it's up to me!
(Repeat Intro)
(Verse)
B'Postle Peter, tDaps me on my Ashoulder
BSays, "are you lost?" I say, "DCan you show me aAround?"
B"Well, I'd be glad to! Tell me, Dwhat brings you to heaven Atoday?"
B"I've always wondered what the Dfuss is all Aabout."
F#I feel like a kid flashin' a fake I.D.
F#Tryin' to slip past the Authority! And now I'm...
(Repeat Chorus)
BHey Mr. Pedro, I Dhave a little conAfession
BI don't belong here, and this Dhalo isn't Amine
BPeter laughs and says, "WellD, boy, haven't you nAoticed?
BWe've all been broken, but Dnow we're doin' just fAine!
F#'Cause nobody's good enough, and up here we're all the same.
F#We all get to heaven under Someone Else's name!"
(Repeat Chorus x2)
