I'm a failed Christian.
[F] I don't go to church.
[G] I smoked and I drank [Am] and I lied and I cursed.
You never got to me, [F] your sermon and all.
[G] You talked and talked about nothing at all.
I'm [Am] a failed Christian, [Am]
failed [A] Christian.
[Am] I got two recollections, [F] taking the collection.
[G] And here's when the choir sang in harmony.
[Am] It scared me half to death.
I [F] swore as I left.
[G] With an inside pocket full of changing memories.
[Am] I'm a failed Christian, failed Christian.
I'm a failed Christian.
[F] I've got my own church.
[G] I pray with my soul to [Am] this great church.
All over the world, [F] the blood's on their hands.
[G] Religious instruction I can't understand.
[Am] I'm a failed Christian, [A] failed [Am] Christian.
I'm gonna meet my maker, [F] a firm believer [G] of spirit and music.
There's [Am] a prayer and a song.
I'm a failed Christian.
[F] And if I'm going under, [G] then you'll come with me.
[Am] That much I can tell.
I'm a failed Christian,
[F] failed Christian, y'all.
[Am] Failed Christian,
[F] failed Christian.
[F] [Am] Failed Christian, [F] I'm a failed Christian.
[Am] Failed Christian, failed, [F] failed Christian.
[Am] I'm a failed Christian.
I'm a failed Christian.
[F] I don't go to church.
[G] I smoke and I drink and I lie [Am] and I curse.
