Absolution Blues

[02:04.20] Bless me, Father, I have sinned
[02:05.82] I've broken hearts, got drunk on gin
[02:07.79] And still I lust for sweet young things
[02:12.16] On the day that I was born
[02:20.92] Bells rang out in Babylon
[02:22.94] Still I can't tell right from wrong
[02:25.55] No matter what the Good Book says
[02:36.11] Now I can see the sun is shining
[02:38.21] But I can feel the rain
[02:40.64] Falling down to wash my tears away
[02:43.50] Wash my tears away
[02:58.24] Holy Mother, save your tears
[02:59.72] You've cried for me a thousand years
[03:02.17] But I was blind to all your fears
[03:06.91] Now I can't stop the tears from falling down
[03:13.63] Come the dawn of judgement day
[03:15.72] I'll get down on my knees and pray
[03:18.13] St. Peter don't you, don't you send me away
[03:30.51] Now I can see the sun is shining
[03:32.64] But I can feel the rain
[03:34.78] Falling down to wash my tears away
[03:40.90] Bless me, Father, I have sinned
[04:37.38] I've broken hearts, got drunk on gin
[04:40.78] And still I lust for everything
[04:45.05] Every little thing
[04:50.84] Come the dawn of judgement day
[04:52.49] I'll get down on my knees and pray
[04:55.24] The Good Lord don't send me away
[04:58.02] I'll never ever go
[05:07.49] Now I can see the sun is shining
[05:09.85] But I can feel the rain
[05:12.32] Falling down to wash my tears away
[05:15.83] Wash my tears away
[05:26.44] I'll get down on my knees
[05:30.78] Don't send me away
[05:32.94] Don't you send me away, no, no, no
