[Am] Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! x2
There [Am]lived a certain man... in Russia long ago
He was [Dm]big and strong, in his [E7]eyes a flaming [Am]glow
Most [Am]people looked at him...with terror and with fear
But to [Dm]Moscow chicks he was [E7]such a lovely [Am]dear
[Am]He could preach the bible like a preacher
[Dm]Full of ecstasy and [E7]fire
[Am]But he also was the kind of teacher
[Dm]Women [E7]would de-[Am]sire
[A]Ra ra [C]Rasputin [D]Lover of the [A]Russian queen

[G]It was a [D]shame how [A]he carried on
Intro: [Am] [Dm] [E7] [Am] x2

But the [Dm]cassock danced it was [E7]really wunder [Am]bar
In [Am]all affairs of state...he was the man to please
