[Intro pt.1]
The priest just kinda laughed.
the deacon caught a draft.
she crashed into the easter mass [same as 1st verse]
with her hair done up in broken glass.
she was limping left on broken heels.
when she said father can i tell your congregation
[Riff] [Intro pt.1]
how a resurrection really feels?
[chorus]
Holly was a hoodrat.
now you finally know that.
she's been disappeared for years.
today she finally came back.
she said: st. louis had enslaved me.
i guess santa ana saved me.
st. peter had me on the queue. [same as 1st verse]
the st. paul saints they waved me through.
I was all wrapped up in some video booth.
when i heard her say i love you too.
[riff]
[intro pt.1]
She said i've laid beneath my lovers but i've never gotten laid.
some nites she felt protected.
some nites she felt afraid. [same as chorus]
she spent half last winter justa trying to get paid.
they wrote her name in magic marks.
on stopsigns and subway cars. [same as chorus]
they got a mural up on e.13th.
that said halleluiah rest in peace.
halleluiah was a hoodrat.
and now you finally know that. [same as chorus]
she's been disappeared for years.
today she finally came back.
Walk on back. [chords from the chorus]
walk on back. (or just solo on F# minor pent. scale)
she said don't turn me on again.
i'd probably just go and get myself all gone again.
holly was a sexy mess.
she looked strung out but experienced.
so we all got kind of curious.
