G The bottom line's been snorted C G The bottom card's been dealt D No one knows like you know right now C G How truly bad it felt G All your life you wasted, oh C G Dreamin' about the day D When worker bees kill off their queen C G And carry all her eggs away CHORUS C Oh, and if you die fearing God G C And painfully employed G D No, you will not go to heaven C G You'll go to Champaign, Illinois G Up north is Chicago C G Where booze makes no one blush D Memory comes back to you C G In a double bourbon rush [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/o/old-97s/265830.html ] G The memories aren't all bad C G And neither, my friend, are you D There is an argument that there must be some heaven meant C G For hearts that are half true CHORUS C And if you spend your whole life G C Rollin' horses into Troy G D No, you will not go to heaven C G You'll go to Champaign, Illinois G D No, you will not go to heaven C G You'll go to Champaign, Illinois G Roll on blacktop highway C G Circles toward the sun D Springfield's in the distance C G And that's the last big one G After that comes judgment C G And judgment will be swift D You will be eliminated C G But here's a parting gift CHORUS C Oh, and if you die fearing God G C And painfully employed G D No, you will not go to heaven C G You'll go to Champaign, Illinois  |
