Love With A Priest

D                         G      
he stands on the alter so stout 
    D
and erect
D                           A
the hair bristles up on the back of 
my neck
D                            G   
his creamy white collar doth tame
          D
 the wild beast
D  G      A           D
i, i'm in love with a priest

he speaks so discreetly and beckons 
to me
come forth to the rail i'll give 
comfort to thee
i'll hear your confession and give 
you release
i, i'm in love with a priest

G
God save me father
D
i surely have sinned
G
a scotch and a water
Continues after the ad
  A
a tonic & gin
    D
but hell or high whiskey
   G           D
i will make my peace
D  G      A           D
i, i'm in love with a priest

i love his black cassock, his 
promise and vow
i worship the sweat that rolls down 
from his brow
though many have suffered with cause
 to repent
i dare not desert him for six weeks 
of lent

the hand lifts the spirit, his head 
tilts to mine
to thirst him is human, to quench is
 divine
he fills me with glory, the longing 
has ceased
i, i'm in love with a priest

God save me father
i surely have sinned
a scotch and a water
a tonic & gin
but hell or high whiskey
i will make my peace
i, i'm in love with a priest
D                                  
now don't weep me daughters - it's 
G            D
not what you think
D                         A
it's only a guinness, the father of 
drink
D                         G      
if anything's rising that would 
      D
be the yeast
(N/C)  A           D
i'm in love with a priest.
D  G   A           D
i'm in love with a priest.(Repeat)
