	G	C	G
	I been thinking lately about the	people I	meet

	C	G	D
The	carwash on the	corner and the	hole in the street

	G	C
The	way my ankles hurt with	shoes on my feet

	G	D	G
And I'm	wondering if I'm	gonna see tom	orrow

Chorus:

	G	C	G
	Father forgive us for	what we must	do

	C	G	D
	You forgive	us we'll	forget you

	G	C
	We'll forgive each other till we	both turn blue

	G	D	G
Then we'll	whistle and go	fishing in	Heaven

Instrumental:

	G	C	G
	I was in the army but I	never dug a	trench

	C	G	D
	I used to bust my	knuckles on a	monkey wrench

	G	C
Then I'd	go to town and drink and	give the girls a pinch

	G	D	G
But I	don't think they	ever even	noticed me

Repeat chorus:

	D
	Fish and whistle

Whistle and fish

	G
	Eat every thing that they put on your dish

	C	G
And	when we get through we'll	make a big wish

	A7	D7
That we	never have to do this	again

Again?

Again???

	G	C	G
	On my very first job I said	"thank you" and	"please"

	C	G	D
They	made me scrub a	parking lot	down on my knees

	G	C
	Then I got fired for	being scared of bees

	G	D	G
And they	only give me	fifty cents and	hour

Repeat Chorus:

Instrumental:

	D
	Fish and whistle

Whistle and fish

	G
	Eat every thing that they put on your dish

	C	G
And	when we get through we'll	make a big wish

	A7	D7
That we	never have to do this	again

Again?

Again???

Repeat Chorus:

Ending:

	G	D	G
	We'll whistle and go	fishing in	Heaven

	We'll whistle and go	fishing in	Heaven
