[G]
[C] We pray for me, when the roots of the earth can [G] rip cake from bread and [C] fire can fade.
Lord knows that I [G] will finally pray for you.
[D] High on the [C] hill when the clock's always blowin' down and the [G] gravity lay me low.
Catholic girl, pray for me, you're my only hope for heaven.
My [C] boy, I drink and [G] love and smoke and snort my pills.
But [C] all the while, I kept in mind the Lord's [G] redeeming grace.
[D] High on the hill when the clock's [C] always blowin' down and the city where the [G] heathens go.
Catholic girl, pray for me, you're my only hope for heaven.
[C] [G]
[C] [G]
[D] He reckoned [C] he let three little boys walk [G] around in purgatory.
[C] I know the tale is just as [G] real as I am surely breathin'.
[C] But I've heard tales of the middle ground [G] I think will work for me.
[D] When the time is come [C] for changin' worlds, I'll head to my [G] bed for the Catholic girl.
Catholic girl, pray for me, you're my only hope for heaven.
