Punk Prayer

G       G/F#    Em         D
Prayers crawl towards the cross,
Am      G     Em          D
golden marks upon their frocks.
C          Em        Bm         C
Freedom’s ghost has left these lands.
Am      G       D
Help us if you can!

[Verse]
G        G/F#   Em D
KGB have turned to saints.
Am     G         Em      D
Gay parades sent off in chains.
C            Em      Bm        C
Blessed limousines congest the streets
Am            G        D
to hail their saint-in-chief.

[Chorus]
G     G/F#        Em   D
Holy Mary, drive Putin away.
G               D                  G
Drive away this darkness from your halls.
Am              G       D
Drive away the ungodly souls.
G                  D              G
Our Lady tear the eagle off your walls.

[Verse]
G      G/F#   Em      D
Father Gundyayev pays back
Am      G       Em      D
from his bag of holy crap:
C            Em        Bm        C
‘Woman, keep quiet and love your man
Am            G       D
your fate and fatherland!’

[Chorus]
G    G/F#  Em    D
Holy Mary, be a feminist.
G                D               G
Pray not for the mighty but the meek.
Am              G               D
Drive away the lies that they speak.
G                  D           E
Our lady, hear our prayer unto thee.

[Verse]
G     G/F#  Em        D
Gundy never cared for God.
Am       G        Em       D
All that dickhead wants is power.
C          Em          Bm       C
Mary, your belt should bring us hope
Am       G       D
now it’s used as rope.

[Verse]
G    G/F#        Em      D
Damn their lies, deliver us!
Am      G       F       D
Pry the copper from the cross!
C         Em        Bm      C
Mary, our hands are tied in prayer.
Am      G         D
Help us if you’re there!

[Chorus]
G    G/F#        Em    D
Holy Mary, drive Putin away.
G               D                  G
Drive away this darkness from your halls.
