Verse 1:
Am                   F
  So they say you're troubled, boy
Am               F
Just because you like to destroy
Am                            F
All the things that bring the idiots joy
     G                     E5
Well,  what's wrong with a little destruction?
Am                    F
  And the Kunst won't talk to you
 Am                  F
'Cause you kissed St Rollox adieu
 Am                       F
'Cause you robbed a supermarket or two
          G                      E5
Well, who gives a damn about the prophets of Tesco?

Fling out the fish and the unleavened?
         C                     A#5         A5
Turn the rich into wine as you walk on the mean

          G                Am
Well, the   fallen are the virtuous among us
      C               G

Yeah, we're all blessed

Verse 2:
Am                F
  So we stole and drank champagne
       Am                         F
On the seventh seal, you said you never feel pain
   Am                         F
"I never feel pain, won't you hit me again?"
   G                               E5
"I need a bit of black and blue to be a rotation"
Am                    F
  In my blood, I felt bubbles burst
            Am                F
There was a flash of fist, an eyebrow burst
         Am               F
You've a lazy laugh and a red white shirt
  G                  E5
I fall to the floor, fainting at the sight of blood


Pre-Chorus:
C                   A#5  A5
 Did I see you in a limousine?
C                          A#5  A5
Fling out the fish and the unleavened?
             C                A#5        A5
You turn the rich into wine, walk on the mean
        C                           A#5     A5
Be they Magdalene or virgin, you've already been
        C                      A#5     A5
You've already been, and we've already seen


Chorus:
          G              Am
Well, the fallen are the virtuous among us
      C               G
Walk among us, never judge us
      C
To be blessed

   F          Dm
La-la, la-la
         F         G        G
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la


Verse 3:
Am                  F
  So I'm sorry if I ever resisted
  Am                    F
I never had a doubt you ever existed
  Am                       F
I only have a problem when people insist on
G                  E5                 Am
Taking their hate, placing it on your name
                F
Some say you're troubled, boy
Am               F
Just because you like to destroy
    Am                     F
You are the word, the word is 'destroy'
  G                  E5
I break this bottle, think of you fondly


Pre-Chorus:
C                   A#5  A5
 Did I see you in a limousine?
C                             A#5  A5
Flinging out the fish and the unleavened?
       C                         A#5       A5
To the whore in a hostel and the scum of a scheme
         C               A#5         A5
Turn the rich into wine, walk on the mean
           C                      A#5         A5
It's not a jag in the arm, it's a nail in the beam
       C                 A#5          A5
On the barren Earth, you scatter your seed
        C                           A#5     A5
Be they Magdalene or virgin, you've already been
       C                    A#5      A5
You've already been, you've already seen
         C       A#5  A5
That the one who,
C       A#5  A5
one who,
C       A#5  A5
one who,
C       A#5  A5
one who,
             C                    A#5     A5
Well, you've already been, you've already seen


Chorus:
         G              Am
That the fallen are the virtuous among us
      C                   G
Walk among us, oh, if you judge us
          C
We're all damned
