[Verse 1]:
Bm
 He was a knight, a lion, a serpent
   D5               A5
He was a traitor, a hunter indeed
   Bm
He came to might, to fire infernal
G5           F#m7 A7
  He prayed hallelujah..
Bm
 Baptize the child, the saint, and the sinner
D5                       A5
 Forgive the murder, the slayer deceased
Bm
 Confess no crime, all sins are forgiven
G5           F#m7 Am7
  Just pray hallelujah

[Pre-Chorus]:
A
He brought damnation, infection, and grief
C5
 Devoured sisters of faith and belief
G5                 F#m7                    B7
 A beast of man, a destroyer, a phantom, a thief

[Chorus]:
           Em             C5
He was the thunderpriest, thunderpriest
Am                      B7        D5
Nightmare in form of a plundering beast
Em             C5
Thunderpriest, thunderpriest

Sent from the heavens to kill!

Bm
He was a wolf, a bastard, and outlaw
D5                   A5
  He was a dragon, a danger indeed
N.C.             Bm
He came by night to haunt his admirers
G5          F#m7 A7
  No more hallelujah..
Bm
Without a right, with none but his sermon
D5                  A5
  Forsaken all that he once had believed
Bm
He justified his slaughter eternal
G5          F#m7 A7
  Invert hallelujah

[Pre-Chorus]:
A
He was a ghost, with the dark he was bound
C5
  A captivator, a striker, a hound
G5                        F#m7                        B7
  A beast of a man and at night he was burned to the ground

[Chorus]:
           Em             C5
He was the thunderpriest, thunderpriest
Am                      B7        D5
Nightmare in form of a plundering beast
Em             C5
Thunderpriest, thunderpriest
B7
Sent from the heavens to kill!

All sancted by the thunderpriest
