E   F#m   Ab

Verse1:
C#m                          E          D
Here in hell's hammock just thinking up deviltry
C#m                                 E D
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


Bridge1:
F#m                Ab
dirty deeds from a demon seed
      D          A
don't excite me anymore
A
Is there one girl
A
Just one girl who says 

Chorus: 
E               D     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now
A
And I love her
E               D     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now
A
Up above her
C#m              E
I'm stagediving off the church
       D
of the holier than thou
C#m             B     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now

Verse2:
C#m                        E        D
He's got his uptight white virginal followers
C#m                                     E D
I've got these metal chicks dumber than rocks
C#m                  E         D
Dated one once but I hated the music
C#m                           G
and all her ex-boyfriends were there on the bus

Bridge2: 
F#m               Ab
Its never good to be "understood"
     D            A
by a girl in acid wash

Verse3:
C#m                        E         D
And god only knows what it is that I really want
C#m                        E         D
guess I could ask but he's not the best confidant

Bridge3:
F#m                 Ab
Puts me down in the biblical sense
        D                       A
In this basement apartment with hell-to-pay rent
A
Is there one girl
A
Just one girl who says

Chorus: 
E               D     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now
A
And I love her
E               D     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now
A
Up above her
C#m              E
I'm stagediving off the church
       D
of the holier than thou
C#m             B     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now
E              F#m    Ab
I'm bigger than Jesus now

Solo:

F#m   Ab   D   A

A
I know there's one girl
A
just one girl who says

Chorus: 
E               D     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now
A
And I love her
E               D     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now
A
Up above her
C#m              E
I'm stagediving off the church
       D
of the holier than thou
C#m             B     A
I'm bigger than Jesus now
