 Evangelist you claim god speaks through you
 Your restless mouth full of lies gains popularity
 You care not for the old that suffer
 When empty pockets cry from hunger

Both Gtrs play Riff A2 4x:

 Penniless from their generosity
 Sharing their money to quench your greed
 Searching for the answers to their prayers
 They cry their last wish of need

Both Gtrs play Riff A1 again 4x:

 His spirit lives and breathes in me
 The almighty transformed to your screen
 The meanings lost in its translation
 No holy words describe his deception

Both Gtrs play Riff A3 4x:

 You say you'll help us find the lord
 Tell me preacher how do you know
 Chord diagramA augmentedA simple quest for a simple savior
 To lead us through our final prayer

On the fourth repeat Right Gtr does a quick little slide
into the chorus.

Both Gtrs play Riff Chord diagramBB 4x:

 Save Me!

Then Both Gtrs play Riff Chord diagramBB again 4x:

 Send your donations
 Contribute to the cause
 Luxuries
 Your righteous reward'
 Praise the lord, praise god
 is what you wish to sell
 There is no Heaven
 Without a Hell

Riff C1 (Careful with the rhythm)

Right Gtr plays Riff C2 2x

Back to the verses:

Both Gtrs play Riff C1 4x:

 In your mind's eye could you
 Truly believe
 That by giving you can save your soul
 Could you be so naive
 You heal the sick
 Raise the dead
 You blind the congregation
 With the things you say

Both Gtrs play Riff C2:

 Religious blackmail a deceit of trust
 That death will come and all will be lost

Both Gtrs play Riff C1 2x:

 Can you hear the serpent's call
 Look deep in those deceiving eyes
 Ignore the writing on the wall
 You should read between the lies.

Then, Gtr 2 stays silent while Gtr 1 plays Riff A1

Then both Gtrs play Riff A1 8x:

 When doubt subsides his honesty
 An inquiry, is it blasphemy'
 Impure the soul, that's made to suffer
 No sermons left to hide or cover
 An empty promise, lie unfulfilled
 To steal a dream or get it killed
 They claim your trip to heavens nearby
 You may believe it, but Satan wouldn't lie.

Interlude (Both Gtrs)  /== 1 =============\/== 2 ======\

After the quick interlude, simply repeat the intro. The song ends just
before going into the 5th ending.
