Keyboard intro


       Bm      G      D         
Well I threw myself a party 
             Bm       G     D
Well, it was just the other day 
        Bm          G            D
Well my wife wasn't there but my old buddies were 
           Bm       G       D
'Cause somebody was goin' away
          Bm            G          D
Well I've lived in this town for a lifetime 
         Bm             G         D
And I've sinned from beginning to Z 
        Bm          G         D  
And the preacher at our congregation 
        Bm          G        D 
He knew just how to get into me 	 


Well he'd stand there so high on his pulpit 
And I knew when he talked of my soul 
But that preacher he died there
With all of my lies 


Chorus:
       D         G                  D
And my sins went with him when they put him in the hole
   D         G                  D
My sins went with him when they put him in the hole  
     D        G             Bm
Well bIess my heart let the good times roll 
   D         G                  D     
My sins went with him when they put him in the hole    


Well he drove a Ford Fiesta 
What the hell kinda car is that 
Well he'd drive around here tryin' to flush out a queer 
Or the man that ran over his cat     
But his heart couldn't take all the pressure 
Tryin' to find what I already know 
And my face has gone pious to cheshire 

Chorus

Instrumental
    
Well the new preacher he is a young man 
And he don't speak as much from the book 
And my wife doesn't like that about him 
But he makes up for that with his looks    
So she stares up at him every Sunday 
And in her eyes I can see all the lust 
But I guess that I can't be complaining 
'Cause it was me that has broken our trust    
So I hope she lives long or gets lucky 
And he passes before she gets old 
Then she won't have to worry 'bout nothin' 


Chorus 2:
'Cause her sins will go with him when they put him in a hole 
Her sins will go with him when they put him in the hole 
Well bless her heart; let fhe good times roll 
'Cause her sins will go with him when they put him in the hole 

Well bless our hearts; let the good times roll 
'Cause our sins will go with him when they put him in the hole     
Our sins will go with him when they put him in the hole
