[4/4, religiously with a beat]
IN HELL THEY’RE PROB’LY PLAYING DISCO (2014)
--J. Wrabek
1.
C F C
I never wanted t’ go to Heaven, ‘cause I’d prob’ly hate the music;
F C G
Can’t see ‘em having honky-tonks like I’m accustomed to;
C F C
No singin’ ‘bout drinkin’, or sex, divorce, and cheatin’,
F C G C
And I bet there ain’t no angels that know how to sing the blues.
2.
If I went to Hell, I’d prob’ly know the people,
And it’d be hot and smoky—the preacher told me so;
But we’d all be bein’ punished for our Earthside transgressions,
And I bet it ain’t the sort of place a fella’d like to go.
CHORUS:
F C
Down in Hell, they’re prob’ly playing… disco;
G C
Latvia’s Got Talent, karaoke all night long;
F C Am
They’ll make you sing Hank Williams to elevator music
F C G C
And vote you off the stage before you’re finished with the song.
3.
No guitars in Heaven, ‘cause you can’t take it with you;
And the sun is always shining, so there’s no ladies of the night;
Just singin’ twenty-four seven, how it’s great t’be in Heaven—
It’s supposed to be a happy place, but it sounds like doin’ time.
CHORUS:
But in Hell, they’re prob’ly playing… disco;
Latvia’s Got Talent, karaoke all night long;
They’ll make you sing Hank Williams to elevator music
And vote you off the stage before you’re finished with the song.
4.
I could learn to play the harp, if they let me into Heaven,
And I’d maybe teach them angels a little rock ‘n’ roll;
If we found some good musicians, we could even charge admission,
Folks’d want to come to Heaven if the place just had some soul.
CHORUS:
‘Cause in Hell, they’re prob’ly playing… disco;
Latvia’s Got Talent, karaoke all night long;
They’ll make you sing Hank Williams to elevator music
And vote you off the stage before you’re finished with the song.
REPEAT LAST LINE OF CHORUS TO END
