D# Hey there, Father I don’t wanna bother you But I’ve got a sin to confess I’m just 16 if you know what I mean Do you mind if I take off my dress? F Don’t know where to start Let me get to the good parts Might wanna cross up your legs D# I’ve got envy, I’ve got greed, anything that you need And I’m not above having to beg B F# A#m D#m There was this boy who tore my heart in two B F# A# D# I had to lay him eight feet underground Chorus: D# C# G# B All I need is someone to save me D# C# G# B Cause I am goin’ down D# C# G# B And what I need is someone to save me D# C# B Cause I am goin’ down, all the way down Well, hey there, Father, there is just one other thing I have a simple request I hear you know God, could you give him a nod in my direction? I would be in your debt Perhaps there is something that we could work out I noticed your breathing is starting to change We could go in the back behind all these stacks of bibles And get out of this cage There was this boy who tore my heart in two I had to lay him eight feet underground Chorus G#m I didn’t wanna do it, Father D# But I caught him with another woman in the bed I made him So I put him in a grave G#m And now there’s no one left around to get me off D# When I want it to drag G#m The next day on the television they identified him D# By the circumsicion that I made and now I’m on the run Gm But wait, why did I have to go and kill him Cm When he was the best I’d ever had Chorus: All I need is someone to save me 'Cause I am goin' down And what I need is somethin' to save me 'Cause I am goin' down, all the way down I'm goin' down All the way down You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  A#m  Cm  C#  D#  D#m  F  F#  Gm  G#  G#m  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
