[C][F][C][G]
[C]

[Verse 1]
Well their [C]brains were
[F]quite large for their bod[C]ies
And it lulled them into thinking
they [G]weren't dumb
They did gun[C]s, ex[F]treme sports,
special hob[C]bies
And cool tricks with
[G]their fingers and [C]thumbs.
And [Am]they thought

[Verse 2]
they would [G]be
guarantee de[C]livered
[Am]To some guy in Roman
san[D]dals and a [G]beard

[Verse 3]
[C]By [F]215[C]3 t[G]hey disappeared.[C]
Yeah they [F]waited for their god in [C]vain[F][C][G]
In [C]the last big [F]play of the [C]final [F]game
They [G]waited for their god in [C]vain.[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]
Oh, they went for the [F]literal
[C]translation
Of every text and symbol
sacred work and [G]screed
They ob[C]sessed over [F]minor
vari[C]ations
Misconstrued the truth to
[G]justify [C]their deeds.

[Verse 5]
And they [Am]thought that all the
[G]others were af[C]flicted
And those who [A]knew the secret
[D]handshake would be [G]saved
And they [C]thought in the [F]end
they'd all be [C]lifted
Now they're lying [G]in the
beds that [C]they made.

[Verse 6]
Ah, they [F]waited for their god in [C]vain
Yeah they waited for their
god in vain
In the last big play of the final game
They [F]waited for their god in [C]vain.
Ah, they waited for their god in vain Yeah, they [G]waited for their god in vain

[Verse 7]
[C]Standing
with their [F]luggage waiting
[C]for the transport [F]plane
They [G]waited for their god in [C]vain.

When [C]they called out for their [F]god
each one [C]used a different [F]name
They [G]waited for their god in [C]vain.

[Verse 9]
This is [C]all we can con[F]clude from
what's [C]left of their re[F]mains
They [G]waited for their god in [C]vain.
