D-DU-UDU
   I'm a Failed Christian
   I dont go to church
   I smoke and I drink
   and I lie and I curse
   it never got to me
   your sermon and all
   you talked and talked
   about nothing at all
 I'm  a Failed Christian
 Failed Christian
   I've got two recollections
   taking the collections
   and tears when the choir
   sang in harmony
   It scared me half to death
   I swore as I left
   with a inside pocket full
   of change and memories
   I'm a Failed Christian
 Failed Christian
 I'm a Failed Christian
 I've got my own church
 I pray with my soul
 to this great universe
 all over the world
 the bloods on their hands
 religious instruction
 I can't understand
 im a Failed Christian,
 Failed Christian
 I'm going to meet my maker
 a firm beleiver
 of spirit in music
 theres a prayer in a song
 I'm a Failed Christian
 and if I'm go under
 them you're coming with me
 that much I can't tell
   Failed Christian
  F Failed Christian
   Failed Christian
  F Failed Christian
   Failed Christian
  F Failed Christian
   Failed Christian
  F Failed Christian
  AM I'm a Failed Christian
  F I dont go to church
  G I smoke and I drink
  AM and I lie and I curse
 One of my favorites -- sounds great solo on acoustic
 Enjoy!
