And  I wish I knewwwwwwww, right from wrong
 Instead of puttin’  it, in all these songs
And  each time I drown, my sorrow and drink
 It isn’t of your  face, that I think
Well  I’m on a road,  to heavens gate
And  I know I made,  my own fate
 G Am C7-1 G And I’m
 please Saint Peter, yeah Have mercy on me
 And you know I tried, but I could not be true
 And everything I have, I’ve given it to you
 And I know its wrong, it’s such a waste
 And I should have taken, the narrow and straight
 Well I could have been, sent from above
 If I only had, someone like made of love
 And thinking, please Saint Peter, Yeah have mercy on me

 If you will, be pious proud, If you will I won’t cry out loud
 And you know I tried, but I could not be true
 Everything I have, I’ve given it to you
 And I know its wrong, it’s such a waste
 And I should have taken, the narrow and straight
 Well I’m on a road, to heavens gate
 And I know I made, my own, fate
 And I’m beggin’, please Saint Peter, Have mercy on me
 If you will, be pious proud, If you will I won’t cry out loud
