Gm             Cm    Gm
My lover's got humour
                       Cm     Bb
She's the giggle at a funeral
                       Cm     Gm
Knows everybody's disapproval
                            Cm    Gm
I should've worshipped her sooner
                     Cm     Gm
If the Heavens ever did speak
                     Cm      Bb
She is the last true mouth piece
                        Cm      Gm
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
                Cm    F
A fresh poison each week
                   Eb                     Gm
'We were born sick, you heard them say it
                      Cm    Gm
My church offers no absolutes
                             Cm    Bb
She tells me 'worship in the bedroom'
                         Cm   Gm
The only heaven I'll be sent to
                   Cm   F
Is when I'm alone with you
               Eb
We were born sick, but I love it

Command me to be well


[Pre-Chorus]

Bb     Eb   Bb       Eb   Bb     Eb   Eb* Bb*
Aaaaaaaaa  aaaaaaaaamen  Aaaaaaaamen  Amen

Bb A F#m D7


[Chorus]

             Gm
Take me to church
                                               D7
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                                                Bb
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
                 Cm
Offer me that deathless death
 Gm                           Bb A F#m D7
Good God, let me give you my life


[Verse 2]

Gm                     Cm
If I'm a pagan of the good times
Gm                Cm
My lover's the sunlight
Bb                   Cm
To keep the Goddess on my side
Gm            Cm
She demands a sacrifice
F
To drain the whole sea
Eb
Get something shiny

Gm                      Cm          Gm
Something meaty for the main course
                       Cm        Bb
That's a fine looking high horse
                    Cm      Gm
What you got in the stable?
                         Cm
We've a lot of starving faithful
F
That looks tasty
Eb
That looks plenty
Eb
This is hungry work


[Chorus]

             Gm

I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
                 Cm
Offer me that deathless death

Good God, let me give you my life

                                                Bb
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
                 Cm
Offer me that deathless death
 Gm
Good God, let me give you my life


[Bridge]

Eb         Bb                D7           Gm
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
        Eb           Bb            D7           Gm
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
        Eb           Bb         D7           Gm
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
     Eb         Bb
Only then I am human
      D7         Gm
Only then I am clean
 F     Eb        Bb      Eb     Bb     Eb      Bb  Eb* Bb*
        Aaaaaaaaamen   aaaaaaaaamen  Aaaaaaaamen  Amen
