[Verse 1]
[Em]                 [Bm]
I hear only what I want to hear
      [C]
But I have to believe in something
[Am]
Have to believe just one thing. I said...

[Chorus]
[D]                         [G]         [Bm]
Father Washington, you're all mixed up
[F]                        [C]       [Em]
Collecting sinners in an old tin cup
[D]                         [G]        [Bm]
Well spare a listen for a restless fool
[F]                                [C]         [Em]
There's something missing when I read your rules

[Verse 2]
      [Em]                              [Bm]
Well, hey there, you tell me you're a holy man
      [C]
But although I'm just a beginner
[Am]
Oh I don't see you as a winner. I said...

[Chorus]
[D]                       [G]          [Bm]
Sister Robinson, you're all washed up
[F]                         [C]     [Em]
Collecting teardrops in a paper cup
[D]                            [G]       [Bm]
If I could tell you what you need to know
[F]                          [C]           [Em]
If I could help you to get on with the show

[Am]                               [G]           [Bm]
But Reverend Ebenezer, there's a storm in my head
         [F]              [C]                        [Dsus4] [D]
Makes me think what you said just wasn't true
                         [Dsus4] [D]
So what have I to do?
                         [Dsus4] [D]
Well what has he to do?
Oh what is there to do?

[Bridge 2]
           [Bm]               [G]
All things bright and beautiful
    [Bm]                  [Em]
All creatures great and small
           [Am]             [Em]
All things wise and wonderful
         [Am]
The Lord God made them all

[Verse 3]
[Em]                         [Bm]
Mary, oh, tell me what I'm living for
         [C]
'Cause I feel like I'm tossed in the river
[Am]
Oh have you a son to deliver? I said...

[Chorus]
[D]                         [G]         [Bm]
Father Washington, you're all mixed up
[F]                        [C]       [Em]
Collecting sinners in an old tin cup
[D]                               [G]       [Bm]
You tell the children what they need to know
[F]                              [C]       [Em]
But will they listen when it's time to go?

[D]                       [G]          [Bm]
Sister Robinson, you're all washed up
[F]                         [C]     [Em]
Collecting teardrops in a paper cup
[D]                          [G]       [Bm]
Can someone tell me what I need to know?
[F]                          [C]           [Em]
Can someone help me to get on with the show?
