Cm Fm Bb/F
When I look back upon my life
Eb Ab/Eb
It's always with a sense of shame
Fm G7
I've always been the one to blame
Cm Fm Bb/F
For everything I long to do
Eb Ab/Eb
No matter when or where or who
Fm G7
Has one thing in common, too
Cm Ab
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
Cm -Ab
It's a sin
Fm
Everything I've ever done
G7
Everything I ever do
Fm
Every place I've ever been
G7
Everywhere I'm going to
Cm
It's a sin
Fm Bb/F
At school they taught me how to be
Eb Ab/Eb
So pure in thought and word and deed
Fm G7
They didn't quite succeed
Cm Fm Bb7f
For everything I long to do
Eb Ab/Eb
No matter when or where or who
Fm G7
Has one thing in common, too
Cm Cm-Cm-Cm-Ab
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
Cm Cm-Cm-Cm-Ab
It's a sin
repeat chorus
Cm
Father forgive me
Ebm
I tried not to do it
Gm
Turned over a new leaf
Cm Bb
Then tore right through it
Cm
Whatever you taught me
Ebm
I didn't believe it
Gm
Father you fought me
Ab
'Cause I didn't care
Bb G
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
