[Verse 1]
D
Pastor, pastor please
Why are you taking off your jeans?
Asus4
And your best Sunday shoes
To show me what’s underneath?
Gsus2
There’s still people in the pews
And my mom’s in the other room
D
I don’t know what you want me to do
Asus4
But she told me to listen to you
[Verse 2]
D
Pastor, pastor please
I’m only nine you’re fifty two
Asus4
And I thought you didn’t believe
That gays could be Christian too
Gsus2
Listen, listen, listen
I swear this won’t take long
D
If you think this is right
Asus4
Then I’m fine with being wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
G A Bm
Turning nickels into dimes just to change my state of mind
D/F# G
Turning nothing into something since I was only nine
A
All the boomers say we’re blind
Bm
All this shit is in our mind
D/F# G A
Go to church on Sunday morning and you should be feeling fine
Bm D/F#
You should be feeling fine
[Chorus]
Dsus4 Dsus2 D3
I did my time in the pews, I took the biblical abuse
Dsus2
I sang the hymns when I didn’t even want to
Dsus4
I sat through the sermons
Dsus2 D3
To hear them say my friends would go to hell
But if that’s sinning
Dsus2 D Asus4
Then send me straight to Hell as well
Gsus2/D D
Then send me straight to Hell as well
[Verse 3]
D
Pastor, pastor please
Why is it that women shouldn’t preach
Asus4
And that there’s parts of that book
That you don’t like to teach
Gsus2
I’m not the only one confused
Cause my mom’s in the other room
D
She scared of the things you do
Asus4
And said maybe not to listen to you
[Chorus]
D
I did my time in the pews, I took the biblical abuse
D
I sang the hymns when I didn’t even want to
D
I sat through the sermons
D
To hear them say my friends would go to hell
D
But if that’s sinning
D Asus4
Then send me straight to Hell as well
Gsus2/D D
Then send me straight to Hell as well
