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 


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

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

That we never have to do this again 
Again?     Again???
