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
