Biography:
John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

"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
A
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.
