[Chorus]
  Em            G                 D    A
I only talk to God when I need a favor
      Em             G              D    A
And I only pray when I ain't got a prayer
    Em                          G                     D         A
So, who the hell am I, who the hell am I to expect a Savior o-o-oh
 
     Em            G                 D
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
 A            Em
God I need a favor!
 
 
[Verse]
Em       G                D                         A
I know Amazing Grace, but I ain't been livin' them words
 Em            G                   D                  A
Swear I spend most Sundays, drunk off my ass, than I have in church
 Em              G               D                  A
Hard cover King James only been savin' dust on the nightstand
Em                        G          D              A
And I don't know what to say by the time I fold my hands
 
 
[Chorus]
  Em            G                 D    A
I only talk to God when I need a favor
      Em             G              D    A
And I only pray when I ain't got a prayer
    Em                          G                     D         A
So, who the hell am I, who the hell am I to expect a Savior o-o-oh
 
     Em            G                 D
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
 
 A            Em   G
God I need a favor!
 
  D A   Em
Amen. Amen.
 
 
[Verse]
 Em              G                  D                A
Yeah, I owe you more than one, and beggars can't be choosers
Em                G                   D                   A
But I'll pay for all I've done, just please don't let me lose her
 
 
[Chorus]
  Em            G                 D    A
I only talk to God when I need a favor
      Em             G              D    A
And I only pray when I ain't got a prayer
    Em                          G                     D         A
So, who the hell am I, who the hell am I to expect a Savior o-o-oh
 
     Em            G                 D
If I only talk to God when I need a favor
 
 A            Em   G
God I need a favor!
 
  D A   Em G
Amen. Amen.
  D A   EM
Amen. Amen.
 
 
[Break]
 Em                G
Hangin' in there, just barely
 D                    A
Throwin' up prayers, like Hail Mary's
Em                      G
If You're still there, Lord spare me
D                 A
Oh my God, oh my God - Hail Mary
 
 Em                G
Hangin' in there, just barely
 D                    A
Throwin' up prayers, like Hail Mary's
Em                      G
If You're still there, Lord spare me
D                 A
Oh my God, oh my God - Hail Mary
 
 
[Chorus]
  Em            G                 D    A
I only talk to God when I need a favor
      Em             G              D    A
And I only pray when I ain't got a prayer
            Em       G      D               A
So tell me, who the hell am I, to expect a Savior
 
       Em            G               D
When I only talk to God if I need a favor
 
 A            Em   G  D
God I need a favor. Amen.
 A            Em   G    D  A
God I need a favor.  oh oh
 
  Em
Amen

              I only talk to God, when I need a favor
And I only pray, when I ain't got a prayer
So, who the hell am I?
Who the hell am I, to expect a savior?
Oh-oh-ohh
If I only talk to God, when I need a favor?
But God, I need a favor

I know Amazing Grace
But, I ain't been livin' them words
Swear, I spend more Sundays
Drunk off my ass, than I have in church
Hardcover King James
Only been savin' dust, on the nightstand
And I don't know what to say
By the time I fold my hands

I only talk to God, when I need a favor
And I only pray, when I ain't got a prayer
So, who the hell am I?
Who the hell am I, to expect a savior?
Oh-oh-ohh
If I only talk to God, when I need a favor?
But God, I need a favor
Amen, amen

Yeah, I owe you more than one
And, beggars can't be choosers
But, I'll pay for all I've done
Just, please, don't let me lose her

I only talk to God, when I need a favor
And I only pray, when I ain't got a prayer
So, who the hell am I?
Who the hell am I, to expect a savior?
Oh-oh-ohh
If I only talk to God, when I need a favor?
But God, I need a favor
Amen, amen
Amen, amen

Hangin' in there, just barely
Throwin' up prayers, like Hail Mary's
If You're still there, Lord spare me
Oh my God, oh my God, Hail Mary

Hangin' in there, just barely
Throwin' up prayers, like Hail Mary's
If You're still there, Lord spare me
Oh my God, oh my God, Hail Mary

I only talk to God, when I need a favor
And I only pray, when I ain't got a prayer
So, tell me, who the hell am I to expect a savior?
When I only talk to God, if I need a favor?
God, I need a favor
Amen
God, I need a favor, whoa
Amen
