By

Verse 1:

B A

Everybody gathered where the river

runs wider at the edge of town

B A E

To see if that Eddy Lee Vaughn baptism

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

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

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

and started yellin' out loud

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

just a little bit of room to swim

and fold your hands
