Intro: A4 A A9  x 4 
 
 
A4          A   A9 
So I sing a song 
A4          A   A9    A4 
To reel 'em in 
       D 
It's a song I sung before and 
                         A     A9    A4  
a song I'm going to sing again 
D 
I mean every word and I don't mean 
                A    A4 
a single one of them 
   E            G   D        A   A9   A4 
Oh Lord Make me pure But not yet 
 
A   A9  
 
A4     A    A9 
Tell a joke 
A4      A    A9   A4 
Tell it Twice 
   D                                   A   A9  A4       
If no one else is laughing then why am I? 
D                                             A   A9 
I split my sides both times and laugh until I cry 
   E                   G   D            A  A9  A4 
Oh Lord please Make me pure but not yet 
 
A  A9  
 
A4            A   A9 
Don't have to try 
A4             A  A9   A4 
I just dial it in 
D 
I've never found a job that for me 
               A   A9   A4 
was worth bothering 
D 
I've got a ton of selfish genes and 
                        A    A9 
lazy bones beneath this skin 
   E            G   D           A  A9  A4 
Oh Lord Make me pure But not yet 
 
A  A9 
 
A4         A  A9 
Smoking kills 
A4     A  A9   A4 
Sex sells 
         D 
I've got one hand in my pocket but the 
                        A   A9  A4 
other one looks cool as hell 
D                                            A   A9 
I know I'm gonna die so my revenge is living well 
   E            G   D           A  A9  A4 
Oh Lord Make me pure But not yet 
 
 
F         C            Dm                  F 
I stopped praying So I hope this song will do 
F          G       E 
I wrote it all for you 
F       C               Dm                 F 
I'm not perfect But you don't mind that,do you? 
F             G                E 
I know you're there to pull me through, Aren't you? 
 
 
              A   A9 
So I look for love 
A4           A   A9   A4 
I like the search 
            D 
And I'll be standing for election all across 
             A     A9  A4 
the known universe 
D                                       A   A9 
Every president get the country she deserves 
   E            G   D           A  A9  A4 
Oh Lord Make me pure but not yet 
 
A  A9 
 
A4               A  A9   
And I've been seeing 
A4           A  A9  A4 
Somebody's wife 
               D 
She said she'd leave him for me 
                       A   A9  A4 
And I said that wasn't wise 
          D                                A   A9 
You can't lie to a liar because of all the lies 
   E                    G   D           A 
Oh Lord, please make me pure But not yet
