Key: C#b

🎸 Intro:

E  B  G#m7  F#
   Hallelujah


🎸 Verse 1:
E                 B
Showed up this morning 'cause I didn't know where else to go
G#m7           F#
Needed a word with the Father, Son, Holy Ghost
E            B            G#m7
When I stepped in the lobby, the pastor, he stopped me
                 N.C.          E
Said, "Lily, where have you been? It's been a month or so"

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
      B
I told him I've been home
   G#m7            F#   E
Tryna get through some goodbye tears
       B
And you don't even know
  G#m7           F#
The Hell it took to get me here


🎸 Chorus:
       E          B
Might've been fifteen minutes late
     G#m7         F#
Might've missed half of the worship
    E          B
But at least I showed my face
  G#m7          F#
And showin' up here's the first step
         E
I've been through heartbreak hell
       B
And my whole row can tell
     G#m7              F#
'Cause I still smell like last night's booze
      E
But I got a last ditch prayer
    B
For the man upstairs
  G#m7               F#
Oh Lord, would you help me through
          E     B  G#m7  F#
Even if I'm in the back pew?


🎸 Verse 2:
E              B           G#m7
Sat in my car through the first couple services
          F#            E
Took a drag just to calm down the nervousness
         B             G#m7
I turned down the music, told myself, just do it
        F#             E
Threw up a Hail Mary instead of cursin' him


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
     B
I finally caught my breath
    G#m7          F#   E
For the first time in way too long
     B
I know I ain't there yet
    G#m7             F#
But the light in the tunnel turned on


🎸 Chorus:
       E          B
Might've been fifteen minutes late
     G#m7         F#
Might've missed half of the worship
    E          B
But at least I showed my face
  G#m7          F#
And showin' up here's the first step
         E
I've been through heartbreak hell
       B
And my whole row can tell
     G#m7              F#
'Cause I still smell like last night's booze
      E
But I got a last ditch prayer
    B
For the man upstairs
  G#m7               F#
Oh Lord, would you help me through
          E     B  G#m7  F#
Even if I'm in the back pew?


🎸 Bridge:
       G#m F# B
I'm singin', Hallelujah
E            F#
I hope it's comin' in clear (I hope it's comin' in clear)
       G#m F# B
I'm singin', Hallelujah
E       B     F#
From all the way back here


🎸 Chorus:
         E          B
Even though I was fifteen minutes late
   G#m         F#
And I missed half of the worship
    E          B
But at least I showed my face
  G#m7          F#
And showin' up here's the first step
         E
I've been through heartbreak hell
       B
And my whole row can tell
     G#m7              F#
'Cause I still smell like last night's booze
      E
But I got a last ditch prayer
    B
For the man upstairs
  G#m7               F#
Oh Lord, would you help me through
          E     B  G#m7  F#
Even if I'm in the back pew?


🎸 Outro:
E   B   G#m7  F#  B
Hallelujah
