VERSE 2
The band played songs faster than they should
Someone prayed for his sins
Thatā??s why those songs never sounded so good
They put his body in

He used to buy me soda pop when I was young
Someone prayed for his sins
Then he bought me a beer when I turned twenty one
They put his body in

The worms have had their way by now
Someone prayed for his sins
I want to give him a hug but I donā??t know how
They put his body in
VERSE 5
Itā??s a beautiful world itā??s a beautiful day
Someone prayed for his sins
Those are the words written on the grave
They put his body in
