Am            Dm           G
  When I look back upon my life
              C               F
  It's always with a sense of shame
              Dm              E
  I've always been the one to blame
Am            Dm           G
  For everything I long to do
              C               F
  No matter when or where or who
          Dm              E  
  Has one thing in common, too
                             Am, Am, Am, Am, Dm, G
     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
               Am, Am, Am, Am, Dm, G
     It's a sin
     Dm
     Everything I've ever done
     E
     Everything I ever do
     Dm
     Every place I've ever been
     E
     Everywhere I'm going to
     It's a sin
At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
     It's a sin
     Everything I've ever done
     Everything I ever do
     Every place I've ever been
     Everywhere I'm going to
     It's a sin

Am                    Cm
  Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it
Ebm                      Am               G
  Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
Am                       Cm
  Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it
Ebm                             F
  Father, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care
        G                E
  And I still don't understand
So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
     It's a sin
     Everything I've ever done
     Everything I ever do
     Every place I've ever been
     Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin
     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
     It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
