[C] I'm a Catholic girl from [F#] Ohio, I was 24 years old.
[A#] A [G] couple [F#] months later, [N] she broke up with me and at the time I couldn't understand.
I was like, how could you do this to me?
When I turned 24, I was an 18 year old and I was like, how could you do that to yourself?
Being raised a real Baptist, it was the first time I ever hung out with anybody who was Catholic.
It was the first time I ever heard anything about [G#] purgatory.
And that sounded [F#] all right to me.
[B] [Bm]
[E] But all of a sudden there was a [F] fighting chance where there used to be [Dm] none.
[G]
[Gm] This song about purgatory, it's called [D] Purgatory.
[G]
[Em]
[G]
We pray [C] for me, when the roots of the oak and the [G] ribcage are braided.
If [C] I can say, Lord knows that I will call [G] and pray for you.
[D] High on the hill where the foxhorns [C] blow down in the grave of the [G] lady of old.
Catholic girl, pray for me and I only hope for heaven.
When I [C] was a boy, I drank and loved and smoked and [G] snored my fill.
And [C] all the while, I kept in mind, Lord, [G] your demon grace.
[D]
High on the hill where the foxhorns [C] blow down in the city where the [G] eagles go.
Catholic girl, pray for me and I only hope for heaven.

[D] Do you reckon he let his free will [C] boy smoke around in [G] purgatory?
I [C] know that hell is just as real as I am [G] surely breathing.
But I've [C] heard tales of the middle ground I [G] think will work for me.
[D] When the time has come for changing [C] worlds, I'll hedge my bets with the [G] Catholic girl.
Catholic girl, pray for me and I only hope for heaven.
