      C#m
There lived a certain man
In Russia long ago,
       F#m
He was big and strong
       G#7            C#m
In his eyes a flaming glow.
       
Most people looked at him
With terror and with fear,
       F#m
But to Moscow chicks
       G#7           C#m
He was such a lovely dear.

   C#m
   He could preach the Bible like a preacher
   F#m6                G#7
   Full of ecstasy and fire.
   C#m
   But he also was the kind of teacher
   F#m6  G#7     C#m
   Women would desire.

Chorus:
     C#    E
     Ra-Ra-Rasputin,
     F#           C#
     Lover of the Russian queen.
   B             F#       C#
     There was a cat that really was gone.

     C#    E
     Ra-Ra-Rasputin,
     F#                C#
     Russia’s greatest love machine,
   B          F#        C#
     It was a shame how he carried on.

Instrumental: C#m | C#m G#m | C#m | C#m G#m
              C#m | C#m | F#m | G#7 C#m

   C#m
He ruled the Russian land
And never mind the Tsar,
        F#m
But the Kazachok
          G#7          C#m
He danced really wunderbar.
     
In all affairs of state
He was the man to please,
       F#m
But he was real great
        G#7           C#m
When he had a girl to squeeze.

   C#m
   For the Queen he was no wheeler-dealer
   F#m6                               G#7
   Though she’d heard the things he’d done.
   C#m
   She believed he was a holy healer,
   F#m6      G#7      C#m
   Who would heal her son.

Chorus:
     C#    E
     Ra-Ra-Rasputin,
     F#           C#
     Lover of the Russian queen.
   B             F#       C#
     There was a cat that really was gone.

     C#    E
     Ra-Ra-Rasputin,
     F#                C#
     Russia’s greatest love machine,
   B          F#        C#
     It was a shame how he carried on.


C#m B                     Amaj
But when his drinking and lusting,
        B          C#m
And his hunger for power
                  
Became known to more and more people,
B
The demands to do something
      Amaj      B6
About this outrageous man
  C#m
Became louder and louder!


   C#m                           G#m
   Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
   C#m                           G#m
   Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
   C#m                           G#m
   Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
   C#m                           G#m
   Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Instrumental: C#m | C#m | F#m | G#7 C#m

      C#m
“This man’s just got to go,”
Declared his enemies,
        F#m
But the ladies begged,
           G#7           C#m
“Don’t you try to do it, please.”
     
No doubt, this Rasputin
Had lots of hidden charms,
          F#m
Though he was a brute,
          G#7           C#m
They just fell into his arms.

   C#m
   Then one night some men of higher standing
   F#m6                       G#7
   Set a trap, they’re not to blame.
    C#m
   “Come to visit us,” they kept demanding
   F#m6   G#7    C#m
   And he really came.

Chorus:
     C#    E
     Ra-Ra-Rasputin,
     F#           C#
     Lover of the Russian queen.
   B               F#     C#
     They put some poison into his wine.

     C#    E
     Ra-Ra-Rasputin,
     F#                C#
     Russia’s greatest love machine,
   B             F#      C#
     He drank it all and said, “I feel fine.”

     C#    E
     Ra-Ra-Rasputin,
     F#           C#
     Lover of the Russian queen.
   B             F#         C#
     They didn’t quit, they wanted his head.

     C#    E
     Ra-Ra-Rasputin,
     F#                C#
     Russia’s greatest love machine,
   B             F#       C#
     And so they shot him till he was dead.

Oh, those Russians!
