Intro:

Em7* Am Dm
Em7* Am Dm

Verse:
Em7*               Am
Tell me, have you heard the one
          Dm                             C  E7
About the prophet with the perfect soul?
             Am                   Dm
The heavenly bastard with his own slasher flick--
            C                  G
The greatest fairytale ever told

Em7
Weekly he receives
Am         Dm                           C E7
A kneeling ovation from a sleepy nation
                       Am               Dm
They're swallowing the old routine, the holy saltine
C                                    G
And backwash from the cup of salvation

Chorus:
                   Am                      F
Have you heard the legend sweeping the land?
               C                       Em7
They're saying we all sprung from some invisible man
            Am                            F
And when he finished up, he took a little rest
              C                    G
And he's been resting ever since I guess..

Bridge:

Am Dm C E7
Am Dm C G

Verse:
          Em7*               Am
Tell me, have you heard the one
          Dm                             C  E7
About the young man who died for your sins?
           Am
You think he would've learned his lesson
            F
Not to mess with us
            C                    G
And yet they say he's gonna come again

Em7*               Am
He might've hit a ripe old age
          Dm                   C  E7
If a disciple had not failed him
             Am                   Dm
Broken, betrayed and lost, he lay alone on the cross
            C                  G
While the Easter bunny pounded the nails in..

Chorus:
                   Am                      F
Have you heard the legend sweeping the land?
               C                       Em7
They're saying we all sprung from some invisible man
            Am                            F
And when he finished up, he took a little rest
              C                    G
And he's been resting ever since I guess..


Interlude:
Em7* Am Dm
Em7* Am Dm

Verse:
          Em7*               Am
Tell me, have you heard the one
          Dm                         C  E7
About the healer who could resurrect?
             Am                   Dm
They say that when he rose from the dead
            C
He had a flattened head
                        G
Black boots and two bolts in his neck
          Em7*
Hokum all ye faithful
   Am        Dm                     C  E7
That's the whole fable as I was told it
             Am                   Dm
Honestly I'm half-way jealous of the gullible zealots
            C                  G
Who believe this unbelievable bullshit..

Chorus:
                   Am                      F
Have you heard the legend sweeping the land?
               C                       Em7
They're saying we all sprung from some invisible man
            Am                            F
And when he finished up, he took a little rest
              C                    G
And he's been resting ever since I guess..
