Am Dm Am
My lover's got humour
Dm C
She's the giggle at a funeral
Dm Am
Knows everybody's disapproval
Dm Am
I should've worshipped her sooner
Dm Am
If the Heavens ever did speak
Dm C
She is the last true mouth piece
Dm Am
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
Dm G
A fresh poison each week
F Am
We were born sick you heard them say it
Dm Am
My church offers no absolutes
Dm C
She tells me 'worship in the bedroom'
Dm Am
The only heaven I'll be sent to
Dm G
Is when I'm alone with you
F
I was born sick but I love it
Command me to be well
C F C Fm C Fm C C B Am
Aaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaamen Aaaaaaaamen Amen
[Chorus](2x)
Am
Take me to church
E
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
C
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Dm
Offer me that deathless death
Am Dm C B
Good God let me give you my life
[Verse 2](2x)
Am Dm Am
If I'm a pagan of the good times
Dm C
My lover's the sunlight
Dm Am
To keep the Goddess on my side
Dm G
She demands a sacrifice
F
To drain the whole sea
Am
Get something shiny
Dm Am
Something meaty for the main course
Dm G
That's a fine looking high horse
F Am
What you got in the stable
Dm G
We've a lot of starving faithful
F
That looks tasty That looks plenty This is hungry work
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
F C E7 Am
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
F C E7 Am
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
F C E7 Am
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
F C
Only then I am human
E7 Am G F
Only then I am clean
C F C Fm C Fm C C B Am
Amen Amen Amen
