[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][Em][D][G][C][D][Em]

[Verse 1]
[G]Wo man goes to heaven,
[Em]it's not i[D]mportant when[Em]
[G]'Cause as soon as she arr[Em]ives God
has [D]to send her down [Em]again
?You've [G]got an extra [C]five years
to [D]clean up after [C]men?
[D]?I [G]mean no dis[C]respect God,
[D]but you bet[C]ter make it [D]ten?
[G][C]

[Verse 2]
[D][C]
Well if heaven's an improve[D]ment I
won't [C]mind the extra [D]squeeze
I've [C]got a few more bird[D]s down there,
[C]after los[G]ing bee[C]s[D]
[C]Trying to lose their bees
[G][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]
So don't be shocked who queue- jumps
Or who just calmly [C]waits
A certain type of be[D]havior
The guest list just creates
[G]

[Verse 4]
No time for lively discussion
No time for televised de[C]bates
The well- meaning soon
be[D]come well meant
It's the hard sell or [Em]hell at [D]the gates,
[G]the[C] ga[D]tes[C]
[G][C][D][C]

[Verse 5]
[G]Alcoholic find[C]s himself out
[D]side the pearly [C]gates
I've [G]only got one [C]worry God,
a [D]few outstanding [C]slates
[G]Any tab you [C]used to have been
[D]passed to so [C]called mates
And [G]after they've paid- [C]up they're [D]off
to the [C]land of empty crates
[G][C][D][C][D]

[Verse 6]
[C]Heaven is a glass,
[D]neither half emp[C]ty nor half ful[D]l
So [C]do us all [D]a favor [C]God and
give that thing [G]a pull[C][D]
[C]Give that thing a pull
[G][C]

[Verse 7]
[G]
So don't be shocked who queue- jumps
Or who just calmly [C]waits
A certain type of be[D]havior
The guest list just creates

Model turns up [C]hours late,
he [D]had to get it right
[C]If [D]you're gon[G]na look cool in hea[C]ven wear
[D]something more than [C]white
[G]Vanity's close to [C]arrogance,
just [D]slightly more polite
[C]Fas[D]hio[G]n show a jumble[C] sale
[D]at [C]a slightly different height
[G]At [C]a s[D]lig[C]htly differ[D]ent height
[G][C]
