Em Am
My lover’s got humour
Em Am
She’s the giggle at a funeral
G Am
Knows everybody’s disapproval
Em Am
I should’ve worshipped her sooner
Em Am
If the heavens ever did speak
Em Am
She is the last true mouthpiece
G Am
Every sunday’s getting more bleak
Em Am
A fresh poison each week
D9
We were born sick
C
You heard them say it
Em Am
My church offers no absolutes
Em Am
She tells me, worship in the bedroom
G Am
The only heaven I’ll be sent to
Em Am
Is when I’m alone with you
D9 C
I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well
G

Chorus:
Em
Take me to church
I’ll worship like a dog
B
At the shrine of your lies
I’ll tell you my sins

So you can sharpen your knife

Offer me that deathless death
Em
Good God, let me give you my life

Take me to church
I’ll worship like a dog
B
At the shrine of your lies
I’ll tell you my sins

So you can sharpen your knife

Offer me that deathless death
Em
Good God, let me give you my life
2nd Verse:
Em Am
If I’m a pagan of the good times

My lover’s the sunlight
G Am
To keep the goddess on my side
Em Am
She demands a sacrifice
D9
To drain the whole sea
C
Get something shiny
Em Am
Something meaty for the main course
Em Am
That’s a fine looking high horse
G Am
What you got in the stable?
Em Am
We’ve a lot of starving faithful

That looks tasty
C
That looks plenty
(passagem 1)
This is hungry work
