Here in hell's hammock just thinking up deviltry

planet-wide panic's a hat that's so old
C#m                    E         D
I'd rather write about her in my diary
C#m                       G
could she be mine without selling her soul

dirty deeds from a demon seed

don't excite me anymore

Just one girl who says

I'm bigger than Jesus now

I'm bigger than Jesus now
A
Up above her
C#m              E
I'm stagediving off the church

I'm bigger than Jesus now

I've got these metal chicks dumber than rocks
C#m                  E         D
Dated one once but I hated the music

guess I could ask but he's not the best confidant

I'm bigger than Jesus now

Up above her

I'm stagediving off the church
       D
of the holier than thou
