"The Most Unoriginal Sin" by John Hiatt (as performed by Willie Nelson on
"Across the Borderline" CD).
D A
What there was left of us
D
Was all covered in dust and thick skin
A
A half eaten apple
Or the whole Sistine Chapel
D
Painted on the head of a pin
G
A life long love's worth
Gone up in a smurk
D
And you didn't even see her waltz in
G
Now this love is a ghost
Having played host
D
To the most unoriginal sin
A
At the wedding we smiled
D
While some devil played wild violin
A
Soon after the chapel
She offered me that apple
D
One bite and I was gone with the wind
G
And you needed no proof
Cause the whole naked truth
D
Was wearing only an infidel's grin
A
And a proud schoolboy's boast
Of having left his post
D
For the most unoriginal sin
INSTRUMENTAL D/G/D/A/D x2
A
Now the jukebox is humming
D
All the venial shortcomings of men
A
Lord I found me this drink
That can finally sink
D
All the skills that I've been wallowing in
G
Buddy once you get started
Once true love's departed
D
You do it over and over again
A
So tonight I will toast
Just whoever comes close
D
To the most unoriginal sin.
