D         G           D        G    D    G D
I like to think I've earned my reputation,

G     D     G         D     A         D  G
For rushing in where angels fear to tread.

      D       G        D        G     D    G
I'll take you home to meet the congregation,

      D    G     D     A      D
We'll all get together in my tent.
[chorus]:
D  G      D      G       D     G       D    G D
I make a dirty little religion out of lovin'

G            D      G     D       A      D  G
I'll make a dirty little convert out of you.

D  G      D      G       D      G       D   G D

[verse]:
       D        G      D     G    D     G
They treat you like a red-headed stepchild

     D      G        D     A         D   G
And try to keep you nailed to the floor

  D      G        D       G        D   G
Join us for the countdown to the rapture

    D      G       D      A        D
We never turned a sinner from our door.

Dirty little acolyte, dirty little one

  G              D           A
Learn the fundamentals of desire

 G           D      G          D
Can I get a witness to my testament?

 G             D   A         D
Can I get an amen from the choir?

D5                       D5
Dirty little religion, dirty little religion,

D5                      D5
Dirty little religion, dirty little religion.
[harmonica break]: D G D G D G D A D [verse]:
   D       G          D         G   D   G
I like to think I've earned my reputation

      D        G        D   A       D  G
For trying to take the bull by the horns

       D       G       D     G     D   G
I'll show you where I get my inspiration

  D       G         D        A        D   G
Where we plow and where we plant the corn.
