Eb         Ab
   He's an ol' altar boy
  Bbm           Eb7
   Lying out there in the street
Ab             F7          Bbm7
   He's an ol' altar boy
Eb          Db7                    Gb7
   Bound up in leather and chains
Cm        F7                 Bbm7
   That's why I'm feeling so blue
   Eb7              Ab
   I'm an old altar boy
  F7             Bb
   What about you?


[Verse 2]
 Eb7                Ab
   Now, I can order in Latin
  F7           Bbm7          Eb7
   Make 'em au gratin, Joe
   Ab
   I'm an old altar boy
F         Bbm7         Eb7
   That's why I'm so depressed
     Db7           Gb7
   I never got the rest of the dream
Cm7              F7
   Just the ritual
        Bbm7      Eb
   Now I'm habitual
     Ab            F7                Bbm7
   Majoring in crimes that are unspeakable
  Eb7                  Ab
   Cause I'm an old altar boy
  F7                   Bbm7
   That's what happened to me


[Verse 3]
Eb7       Ab             F7
   I'm an old altar boy
        Bbm7                Eb7                   Db
   He's hoping he can meet      a woman dressed like a nun
   Gb7               Cm7             F7
   He knows there's got to be some around here
   Bb7                    Eb7
   Drinking across from the church
     Ab               F
   A little Father Cribari wine
Bbm        Eb7       Ab
   On a Sunday morn' time


[Verse 4]
Db            Gb
   I'm an old altar boy
Cm     F7            Bb7
   Why is he winking at this time in his life?
 Eb7                Ab                 F7
   He never took a wife, cause he's an old altar boy
   Bbm   Eb
   Oh, yeah...
              Ab
   What about you?
