Gm7             D7
Heavenly father up above
              Gm7
Have mercy on me
                  D7
After 7 years of bad bad love
               Gm7
I finally got free
                 G7           Cm7
I don't mean to seem ungrateful
D7                  Gm7
You answered my prayers
                        D7
And father if you're able
                                            Gm7
Don't let me do the same damn thing all over again

Gm7
You get the fever
D7
You get the itch
                          Gm7
And you forget about the mess you were in
                               D7
You forget about the money the lawyers and the pain
                                C7
And do the same damn thing all over again

  Gm7               D7
Oh mighty father great and good
                       Gm7
You need to be in my shoes
                          D7
You let me fall in love just like before
                                           Gm7
And now I'm stepping in a big pile of the blues
            G7            Cm7
But now the honeymoon is over
D7             Gm7
Let's not pretend
           G7
I guess I never
                Cm7
Learned my lesson
           D7                          Gm7
I did the same damn thing all over again

   Gm7
You get the fever
  D7
You get the itch
                          Gm7
And you forget about the mess you were in
                               D7
You forget about the money the lawyers and the pain
                              C7
And do the same damn thing all over again

   Gm7                D7
Mother Mary, father Joe
                       Gm7
I need to talk to your son
                 D7
He had troubles just like mine
                  Gm7
And he's the chosen one
        G7           Cm7    D7              Gm7
So if I ever go to heaven, will that be the end?
           G7                  Cm7
Or will I fall for some sweet little angel
            D7
And do the same damn thing all over again

   Gm7
You get the fever
  D7
You get the itch
                          Gm7
And you forget about the mess you were in
                                D7
You forget about the money, the lawyers and the pain
                                C7         Gm7
And do the same damn thing all over again
