Singing hospital hymns in the waiting room

I'm the very last one to hear the news

Just read that old book, it'll be alright

My prayer started tasting like little white lies

Everything is gonna be fine

Honey, everything is gonna be fine 
    C                    F       C 
But women are masters of wasting time 
    Am      Am11        F        C 
And men rape everything in their sight 
   C                           F        C 
Together all we're good for is starting fights 
      Am         Am11       F      C 
Sweet Lord we're gonna burn in the fire

If I'm killed by the cancer in her breast 
       C               F      C 
Let me give the little I have left 
    Am     Am11  F   C 
And die an honest death
