Intro:

 Am    | F    | C    | G    :


Verse 1:
Am             F                       C
  I sat in church while my father preached
              G               Am
About sexual sin and pornography
              F                  C
Learning that I was inherently bad
                  G                    Am
That God was my lover, my brother, my dad

Verse 2:
                 F                     C
And that made me feel kind of dirty inside
        G                    Am
I was afraid I was the Anti-Christ
                 F                   C
Because I felt nothing whenever I prayed
                  G                                N.C.
I said I was a Republican in the second grade


Chorus:
         C                                G
So who's that in the corner listenin' to R.E.M?
     F
It's me, losin' my religion again
  C                       G
I didn't ask to join, it wasn't my fault
F
  Growin' up is like leaving a cult

         C       G
I'm leavin' (Leavin')
          F
Leavin' a cult (Leavin' a cult, leavin' a cult, leavin' a cult)
         C       G
I'm leavin' (Leavin')
          F
Leavin' a cult (Leavin' a cult, lеavin' a cult, leavin' a cult)


Verse 3:
Am            F                              C
  I sat in science class and I fantasizеd
                   G                         Am
About getting killed because I stood up for Christ
              F                      C
I'd get a new body, a crown and a mansion
                G                    Am
I'd be the most popular angel in heaven


Bridge:
                   F                         C
These are the end times, that's what my dad said
                           G
Don't take the mark of the beast on your forehead
Am                    F                     C
  There are satanic themes in Dragon Ball Z
            G          N.C.
And secular music on MTV


Chorus:
         C                                G
So who's that in the corner listenin' to R.E.M?
     F
It's me, losin' my religion again
  C                       G
I didn't ask to join, it wasn't my fault
F
  Growin' up is like leaving a cult

         C                                G
So who's that in the corner listenin' to R.E.M?
     F
It's me, losin' my religion again
      C                       G
I'm a little kid riding in a mechanical adult
F                N.C.
  Growin' up is like leaving a cult

         C       G
I'm leavin' (Leavin')

I'm leavin' (Leavin')
          F
