   E A B

                                      

                           Monday Morning Church



                 E

   You left your Bible on the dresser

        A                    A C#m
   So I put it in the drawer

   F#m                                        B
   'Cause I can't seem to talk to God without yelling anymore

              E
   And when I sit at your piano

         A                       A C#m
   I can almost hear those hymns

   F#m
   The keys are just collecting dust

   B
   But I can't close the lid


   (chorus)

               E
   You left my heart as empty

        A                     A C#m
   As a Monday morning church

   F#m                            B
   It used to be so full of faith now it only hurts

             E
   And I can hear the devil whisper

               F#
   "Things are only getting worse"

               A
   You left my heart as empty

        B              E
   As a Monday morning church


       E
   The preacher came by Sunday

           A                        A C#m
   Said he missed me at the service

   F#m
   He told me Jesus loves me

           B
   But I'm not sure I deserve it

              E
   'Cause the faithful man that you loved

      F#m
   Is nowhere to be found

              A
   Since they took all that he believed

       B

   And laid it in the ground
   (repeat chorus)



   (bridge)


     D

   I still believe in Heaven

           E
   And I'm sure you've made it there

   F#m
   But as for me without your love, girl

   B
   I don't have a prayer
   (repeat chorus) (walk down E  D#  C#  B  A)

                 E
   You left your Bible on the dresser

        A                    B E
   So I put it in the drawer
