Capo : fret 5
Am Dm
my lover's got humour
Am Dm
she's the giggle at a funeral
C Dm
knows everybody's disapproval
Am Dm
I should've worshipped her sooner
Am Dm
if the heavens ever did speak
Am Dm
she is the last true mouth piece
C Dm
every sunday's getting more bleak
Am Dm
a fresh poison each week
G
we were born sick,
F
you heard them say it..
Am Dm
my church offers no absolutes
Am Dm
she tells me 'worship in the bedroom
C Dm
the only heaven I'll be sent to
Am Dm
is when I'm alone with you
G F
I was born sick, but I love
F
command me to be well..
C F C
a.. a..men..
F C Fm C D-B
a..men.. a..men..
(Chorus)
B -A# Am
take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
E
at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins
C
and you can sharpen your knife
Dm
offer me that deathless death
Am D-B
good God, let me give you my life..
B -A# Am
take me to church
I'll worship like a dog
E
at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins
C
and you can sharpen your knife
Dm
offer me that deathless death
Bm D-C# C#-C
good God, let me give you my life..
Am Dm
if I'm a pagan of the good times
Am Dm
my lover's the sunlight
C Dm
to keep the Goddess on my side
Am Dm
she demands a sacrifice
G
to drain the whole sea
F
get something shiny
Am Dm
something meaty for the main course
Am Dm
that's a fine looking high horse
C Dm
what you got in the stable..
Am Dm
we've a lot of starving faithful
G F
that looks tasty, that looks plenty
F
this is hungry work..
(Chorus)
B -A# Am
take me to church
I'll worship like a dog

Dm
offer me that deathless death
Bm D-C# C#-C
good God, let me give you my life..
F C
no masters or kings..
E C
when the ritual begins..
F C
there is no sweeter innocence
E C
than our gentle sin..
F C
in the madness and soil
E C
of that sad, earthly scene..

only then I am human..
E Am G F C
only then I am clean.. ooh.. ooh..

a..men.. a..men.. a..men..
