Steve Vai:

        Sex and Religion



intro: Ab     Absus4  Ab  Absus4 Gb Db



Ab     Absus4  Ab  Absus4 Gb Db

Repent, repent, repent ye sinners -



Ab

What do you think you got,

Absus4                       Gb    Db

When you thought you had a lot

Ab                                Gb  Db

But all your feelings are dead ?



And who do you think you are

When you're reaching for the stars

But all your feelings are dead ?



A               E

Must you make a decision

        F#m           E

between sex and religion

Db7+9

Why can't you love God in your bed ?



A ---------1---------|

E 0--2--4----4--2--0-|





Chorus:

Ab

Well, Jesus Christ

Absus4          Gb   Db

Is in your bed tonight

Ab                             Gb Db

To bring you back from the dead.



How are you gonna fight

For what you think is right

If all your feelings are dead ?



And what can you know of love

>From the eyes of a child to the heavens above ...

When all your feelings are dead ?



It's a tragic condition,

Sex and Religion,

Makin' a mess in your head.





Chorus:

Well, Jesus Christ

Is in your bed tonight

To bring you back from the dead.



Jesus Christ

Or any son of athe headless light

When all your feelings are dead.



Resurrection !



Rap:

Ab

I raise my hands high up in the air,

Db

Get down on my knees,

And then I start-a-prayin'.



When love walks in

My body begins

I feel my promised land comin'

But I gotta go to Hell now.



d those Creatures,

Evangelist preachers,

The ones that take money

For the promise of hope,



Well, they are dangerous.

I'm not dangerous,

Brain washing us

And we're not gonna take it.



Solo



G

I just wanna know

Oh, Lord how is it so

How is it that you can take my sins away?



Oh, Lord tell me

So I can see the light again

I don't think anybody can take my sins away.



intro



How can the truth be known

If we got little black holes

In our souls

And all our feelings are dead?



Are we imprisoned

By sex and religion

Or is God the one that's trapped in our mess ?



Chorus



Rap:

So remember now folks,

When you kneed to pray,

Blow a little kiss to the hypocrites.



Good Go knows when you turn

The other cheek

Which direction you're pointing it.
