Blasphemous Rumors - Depeche Mode Transcribed from the 101 Songbook. Enjoy. [Verse 1 and 2]

F#m
Girl of sixteen whole life ahead of her,

Slashed her wrists, bored with life. Didn't succeed, thank the Lord,

Bm        C#      F#m
for small mercies.

F#m
Fighting back the tears, mother reads the note again,

Sixteen candles burn in her mind. She takes the blame, it's always the same,

     Bm                             F#m
she goes down on her knees and prays.

[Chorus]

   D                      A/C#
I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours, but I

 Bm7                    D
think that God's got a sick sense of humour, and

 E9sus4                          D
when I die, I expect to find Him laughing.

[End Chorus] [Verses 3 and 4 same as 1 and 2. Words below.] Girl of eighteen, fell in love with everything, Found new life in Jesus Christ. Hit by a car, ended up On a life support machine. Summer's day, as she passed away, Birds were singing in the summer sky. Then came the rain, and once again, a tear fell from her mother's eye. [Chorus over and over again until fade]
