Sneakin' Into Heaven
Chris Rice

NOTE- much of the song is picked with a bass background- it's mostly correct as I see 
let me know if you come up with something else.  Peace.

Intro- Palm muted chug on the B chord

(Verse)
B              D               A
City sidewalk, bright Saturday morning
B                 D             A
Beggar with a halo shuffles up to me
B                                   D                    A
He asks me for a coin, and mumbles, "Thank you, and God bless you."
B                       D           A
Good deeds and halos not sure what I believe.
F#
He asks me, "Is there something I can give back to you?
F#
How 'bout this halo for an hour or two?" And now I'm...

(Chorus)
B                           D        A
Sneakin' into heaven with a borrowed halo
B                       D        A
Hopin' no one notices my broken wings
B                                        D          A
Peekin' through these gates and thinkin' Lord have mercy!
F#
I'm never gonna make it if it's up to me!

(Repeat Intro)
(Verse)
B               D            A
'Postle Peter, taps me on my shoulder
B                             D                A
Says, "are you lost?" I say, "Can you show me around?"
B                               D                         A
"Well, I'd be glad to! Tell me, what brings you to heaven today?"
B                             D            A
"I've always wondered what the fuss is all about."
F#
I feel like a kid flashin' a fake I.D.
F#
Tryin' to slip past the Authority! And now I'm...

(Repeat Chorus)

B                D                A
Hey Mr. Pedro, I have a little confession
B                            D           A
I don't belong here, and this halo isn't mine
B                           D                   A
Peter laughs and says, "Well, boy, haven't you noticed?
B                         D                      A
We've all been broken, but now we're doin' just fine!
F#
'Cause nobody's good enough, and up here we're all the same.
F#
We all get to heaven under Someone Else's name!"

(Repeat Chorus x2)
