[Verse 1]
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's the last true mouthpiece
G Am Em
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
Am
A fresh poison each week
D C
"We were born sick"
You heard them say it
Em Am Em
My church offers no absolutes
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
D C
I was born sick, but I love it
C
Command me to be well

[Verse 2]
Em Am
My lover's the sunlight
G Am
To keep the goddess on my side
Em Am
She demands a sacrifice
D C
Drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
Em Am
Something meaty for the main course
Em Am
That's a fine looking high horse

What you got in the stable?

We've a lot of starving faithful

That looks tasty
That looks plenty

This is hungry work

Take me to church

No masters or kings when the ritual begins
[Bridge]
C G B7 Em
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin

In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene

Only then I am human

Only then I am clean
