Intro: Am Dm Em Am Dm Em Am My lover's got humour Dm C He's the giggle at a funeral Am Knows everybody's disapproval Dm G C I should've worshiped him sooner Am If the Heavens ever did speak Dm G C He is the last true mouthpiece Am Every Sunday's getting more bleak Dm C A fresh poison each week Am Dm Em 'You were born sick,' you heard them say it Am My church offers no absolutes Dm G He told me, 'Worship in the bedroom' Am The only heaven I'll be sent to Dm G Em Is when I'm alone with you Am We were born sick F But I love it Em Command me to be well Am Dm Em Am Dm Em Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen Am Take me to church Em I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies C I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife Dm Offer me that deathless death Am Oh good God, let me give you my life G Am Take me to church Em I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies C I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife Dm Offer me that deathless death Am Oh good God, let me give you my life Am If I'm a pagan of the good times Dm Em My lover's the sunlight Am To keep this God on my side Dm Em He demands a sacrifice Am To drain the whole sea Dm Em Am Get something shiny, yeah-ah-ah Am Something meaty for the main course Dm Em Am That's a fine looking high horse What you got in the stable? Dm Em C That's a lot of starving faithful Am That looks plenty That looks tasty Dm This is hungry work Em Am Take me to church Em I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies C I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife Dm G Offer me that deathless death Am Oh good God, let me give you my life Am Take me to church Em I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies C I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife Dm Offer me that deathless death Am Oh good God, let me give you my life Am No masters or kings When the ritual begins Dm Em There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin Am In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene F Dm Only then I am human C Am Only then I am clean Dm Em Am Dm Em Amen.
