Intro: E minorEm B7B7 A minorAm DmDm x2

Verse:
E minorEm        A minorAm
Tell me, have you heard the one

     DmDm            C majorC    E7E7
About the prophet with the perfect soul?

E minorEm    B7B7 A minorAm          DmDm
The heavenly bastard with his own slasher flick--

       C majorC            G+G
The greatest fairytale ever told

E minorEm   B7B7 A minorAm
Weekly he receives

       DmDm          C majorC     E7E7
A augmentedA kneeling ovation from a sleepy nation

E minorEm       B7B7   A minorAm        DmDm
They're swallowing the old routine, the holy saltine,

  C majorC              G+G
And backwash from the cup of salvation

-----

Chorus:
G+G         A minorAm         FF
Have you heard the 🏷Legend sweeping the land?

        C majorC             E7E7
They're saying we all sprung from some invisible man

      A minorAm              FF
And when he finished up, he took a little rest

C majorC                 G+G      G7G7
And he's been resting ever since I guess...


-----

E minorEm    B7B7    A minorAm
Tell me, have you heard the one

     DmDm             C majorC     E7E7
About the young man who died for your sins?

           A minorAm
You think he would've learned his lesson

    DmDm
Not to mess with us,

       C majorC          G+G
And yet they say he's gonna come again

  E minorEm    B7B7  A minorAm
He might've hit a ripe old age

   DmDm           C majorC    E7E7
If a disciple had not failed him

    A minorAm            DmDm
Broken, betrayed and lost, he lay alone on the cross

     C majorC            G+G
While the easter bunny pounded the nails in...

-----


E minorEm    B7B7    A minorAm
Tell me, have you heard the one

     DmDm          C majorC     E7E7
About the healer who could resurrect?

           A minorAm
They say that when he rose from the dead

     DmDm
He had a flattened head,

   C majorC             G+G
Black boots and two bolts in his neck

E7E7      A minorAm
Hokum all ye faithful,

         DmDm       C majorC      G+G
That's the whole fable as I was told it

E7E7      A minorAm           DmDm
Honestly I'm half-way jealous of the gullible zealots

  C majorC             G+G
Who believe this unbelievable bullshit...
