[Verse 1]
G                                  C       G
I been thinkin' lately about the people I  meet
     C             G              D
The carwash on the corner and the hole in the street
     G                        C
The way my ankles hurt with shoes on my feet
         G               D            G
And I'm wondering if I'm gonna see tomorrow
 
[Chorus]
G                       C          G
Father forgive us for what we must do
C           G   D
You forgive us, we'll forgive you
 G                                C
We'll forgive each other till we both turn blue
            G              D          G
Then we'll whistle and go fishin' in Heaven

[Verse 2]
G                        C           G
I was in the Army but I never dug a trench
C                  G             D
I used to bust my knuckles on a monkey wrench
    G                          C
I'd go to town and drink and give the girls a pinch
       G                D         G
But I don't think they ever even noticed me
 
[Chorus]
G                       C          G
Father forgive us for what we must do
C           G   D
You forgive us, we'll forgive you
 G                                C
We'll forgive each other till we both turn blue
            G              D          G
Then we'll whistle and go fishin' in Heaven
 
[Bridge]
D
Fish and whistle, whistle and fish
G
Eat everything that they put on your dish
     C                         G
And when we get through, we'll make a big wish
         A7                    D7
That we never have to do this again,  Again? Again???
 
[Verse 3]
      G                      C                 G
On my very first job I said "thank you" and "please"
      C              G            D
They made me scrub a parking lot down on my knees
G                     C
Then I got fired for being scared of bees
         G             D              G
And they only give me fifty cents an hour
 
[Chorus]
G                       C          G
Father forgive us for what we must do
C           G   D
You forgive us, we'll forgive you
 G                                C
We'll forgive each other till we both turn blue
            G              D          G
Then we'll whistle and go fishin' in Heaven
