      Am                                Fma7    

1. My made-up mind was not put here for you to try and change
      C                              F                     G

You think that I am your lost cause,   so beautiful and strange
 Am                               Fma7

Minding my own business ‘til you criticized my friends
     C                                G

It’s on now, time to go now. Let the heresy begin. Yeah, yeah
 F            G

and so I’m screamin’

C                              G

CH:  Go away god boy, your gospel doesn’t work on me          

     Am                               F                 G
    You’re pestering a goddess, here, I was blind, but now I see

     C                                        G
    You’re stuck inside your holy head, you think that you’re in love

    Am                               F               G               Am
    So, go away, you lamb of god, before I have to crush you like a (bug)
 

     Am                                  Fma7
2. Thanks for the invitation, but I’ve already thought this through

        C                        F                 G
If I’m not one of the chosen, I won’t have to put up with you.

     Am                              Fma7
Who wants to go to heaven when your stalker meets you there?

 C                                
Better a whore of Babylon, baby. 

F                          G                 C
 Don’t let the front door hit you when you (go)   {CH}

    Am                                   Fma7
3. Don’t try to wrap your head around my heart full of free will

       C                                F               G
I’ll shake you up, I’ll tear you down, do my worst and give you chills
     Am                                     Fma7

I’ll hit you right between the eyes; these boots will come to call.
       C                              G

Don’t make me make you sorry you came after me at all.  Whoa, whoa,
                F                              Am

Bridge: You’re pestering this goddess to the ground,
             C

but she will not come down
    F                  G

to what’s inside your head.
    F                                  Am

Go find a willing flock of sheep and preach to it instead
     C                    F                             G   (tacit…)

At least that way you’re occupied and might not end up dead & resurrected

 

C                               G

Go away, god boy, please don’t make me ask again.
Am                     F                   G

I have heard you out, now it’s my turn to add a spin
      C                              G

Your holy head is up your ass, your message ringing clear.
Am                        F                G                 (Am)

Go away, god boy, or it’s me and not your savior that you’ll fear.

 

 Am        Fma7             C                G

Hail Mary, full of grace!  Save me from the human race!
 Am        Fma7             C                  G       (tacit at start of CH)

Hail Mary, wise and meek!  Save me from this freak!    {CH}

 

{last CH & Tag}
 C                            G

Go away, god boy your gospel doesn’t work on me
        Am                               F                  G

You’re stuck inside your dogma and your Karma’s getting messy
      C                              G

your holy head is up your ass, your message ringing clear

Am                        F                G

Go away, god boy, or it’s me and not your savior that you’ll
Am                               F                  G

Go away now little boy, or it’s girls and not your savior that you’ll
Am                       F                G                  Am

Go away god boy, or it’s me and not your savior that you’ll fear.
