      D#m
There lived a certain man
In Russia long ago,
       G#m
He was big and strong
       Bb7            D#m
In his eyes a flaming glow.
       
Most people looked at him
With terror and with fear,
       G#m
But to Moscow chicks
       Bb7           D#m
He was such a lovely dear.

   D#m
   He could preach the Bible like a preacher
   G#m6                Bb7
   Full of ecstasy and fire.
   D#m
   But he also was the kind of teacher
   G#m6  Bb7     D#m
   Women would desire.

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

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

Instrumental: D#m | D#m Bbm | D#m | D#m Bbm
              D#m | D#m | G#m | Bb7 D#m

   D#m
He ruled the Russian land
And never mind the Tsar,
        G#m
But the Kazachok
          Bb7          D#m
He danced really wunderbar.
     
In all affairs of state
He was the man to please,
       G#m
But he was real great
        Bb7           D#m
When he had a girl to squeeze.

   D#m
   For the Queen he was no wheeler-dealer
   G#m6                               Bb7
   Though she’d heard the things he’d done.
   D#m
   She believed he was a holy healer,
   G#m6      Bb7      D#m
   Who would heal her son.

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

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


D#m C#                    Bmaj
But when his drinking and lusting,
        C#         D#m
And his hunger for power
                  
Became known to more and more people,
C#
The demands to do something
      Bmaj      C#6
About this outrageous man
  D#m
Became louder and louder!


   D#m                           Bbm
   Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
   D#m                           Bbm
   Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
   D#m                           Bbm
   Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
   D#m                           Bbm
   Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Instrumental: D#m | D#m | G#m | Bb7 D#m

      D#m
“This man’s just got to go,”
Declared his enemies,
        G#m
But the ladies begged,
           Bb7           D#m
“Don’t you try to do it, please.”
     
No doubt, this Rasputin
Had lots of hidden charms,
          G#m
Though he was a brute,
          Bb7           D#m
They just fell into his arms.

   D#m
   Then one night some men of higher standing
   G#m6                       Bb7
   Set a trap, they’re not to blame.
    D#m
   “Come to visit us,” they kept demanding
   G#m6   Bb7    D#m
   And he really came.

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

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

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

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

Oh, those Russians!
