MODERN JESUS


The Synth Part/Intro is played over the verse chords.


VERSE

G# A Bbm   F#     C#    Eb
   Come on in, have a seat next to me.
 Bbm              F   G# A
You know we got... we got what you need.
Bbm     F#     C#    Eb
We may be liars, preaching to choirs,
 Bbm              F    G# A
but we can... we can sell your dreams.

PRE-CHORUS

Bbm       F#      C#     Eb
You don't need sympathy, they got a pill for everything.
Bbm                     F     G# A
Just take that dark cloud, wring it out to wash them down.


CHORUS

Bbm      F#    C#     G#
don't pray for us, we don't need no modern jesus,
Bbm      F#    C#     G#
to roll with us, the only rule we have is never
F#   Bbm   C#      F     G# A
giving up, the only faith we have is faith in us.


VERSE 2
Bbm    F#    C#    Eb
We're the ones who started a fire,
Bbm                 F                G# A
Yeah they burn out... but when they're on the rise I can't help but shine.


PRE-CHORUS

Bbm      F#       C#      Eb
And when the wave approaches take our bodies to the ocean
Bbm                F
Who cares if hell awaits... we're having drinks at heavens gates.

REPEAT CHORUS


BRIDGE

Bbm       F#       C#      Eb
We know that we're helpless, at least we always assumed.
Bbm            F       G# A
But we don't need to prove nothing to you.
Bbm      F#     C#     Eb
Let's keep it cool, you don't need to feel blue,
Bbm              F
Cuz we won't sell you nothing you can't use.
