Verse 1:

B                            A
Everybody gathered where the river 
     E            B              A     E
runs wider at the edge of town
   B                    A         E
To see if that Eddy Lee Vaughn baptism
    B                A     E
was really gonna go down
B                     A
Folks bet hard-earned money
     E              B                A   E
that water wouldn't change a thing
     B                 A          E
They set the odds at a hundred to one,
    B                      A       F#
his soul would never come clean

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



         
Then the preacher said people take a moment or two
F#
There's something we need to do


Chorus:

 (nothing)   B
Pray for the fish,
           A           E
they won't know what's comin'
          B                          A        E
when then sins start rollin' off the likes of him
B                     A          E
Lord be with 'em they ain't done nothin'
B
Please won't you leave 'em
       A             E       F#
just a little bit of room to swim
 (nothing)   B
Pray for the fish


Verse 2:

         B
Well the preacher ducked him under
     A          E              B             A     E
that cool clear water, then he did it again
B                         A       E
Eddy came up yelling, "Oh Lord in Heaven,
     B                      A         E
Hallelujah, I'm a brand new man"
         B
Well the water got to bubblin'
    A          E
the sky got to rumblin', 
        B                     A        E
and the thunder backed up the choir
    B
The fish started jumpin'
       A              E             B             A   E
it was like they were swimmin' in a lake of fire
     F#
Then Eddy's mamma stepped out of the crowd
    F#
and started yellin' out loud


Chorus;

 (nothing)   B
Pray for the fish,
           A           E
they won't know what's comin'
         B                          A        E
when the sin starts rollin' off the likes of him
B                      A          E
Lord be with 'em, they ain't done nothin'
B
Please won't you leave 'em,
       A             E       F#
just a little bit of room to swim
 (nothing)   B
Pray for the fish

He said everybody cross your fingers
              F#
