John Prine - Fish whistle

^GI been thinking lately about the ^Cpeople I ^Gmeet The ^Ccarwash on the ^Gcorner and the ^Dhole in the street The ^Gway my ankles hurt with ^Cshoes on my feet And I'm ^Gwondering if I'm ^Dgonna see tom ^Gorrow

^GFather forgive us for ^Cwhat we must ^Gdo ^CYou forgive ^Gus we'll ^Dforget you ^GWe'll forgive each other till we ^Cboth turn blue Then we'll ^Gwhistle and go ^Dfishing in ^GHeaven

^GI was in the army but I ^Cnever dug a ^Gtrench ^CI used to bust my ^Gknuckles on a ^Dmonkey wrench Then I'd ^Ggo to town and drink and ^Cgive the girls a pinch But I ^Gdon't think they ^Dever even ^Gnoticed me (Repeat chorus)

^DFish and whistle Whistle and fish ^GEat every thing that they put on your dish And ^Cwhen we get through we'll ^Gmake a big wish That we ^A7never have to do this ^D7again Again? Again???

^GOn my very first job I said ^C"thank you" and ^G"please" They ^Cmade me scrub a ^Gparking lot ^Ddown on my knees ^GThen I got fired for ^Cbeing scared of bees And they ^Gonly give me ^Dfifty cents and ^Ghour

^DFish and whistle Whistle and fish ^GEat every thing that they put on your dish And ^Cwhen we get through we'll ^Gmake a big wish That we ^A7never have to do this ^D7again Again? Again??? (Repeat Chorus)

^GWe'll whistle and go ^Dfishing in ^GHeaven ^GWe'll whistle and go ^Dfishing in ^GHeaven
