Take Me To Church

Gm             Cm    Gm
My lover's got humour
                       Cm     A#
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      A#
She is the last true mouth piece
                        Cm      Gm
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
                Cm    F
A fresh poison each week
                   D#                      Gm
'We were born sick, you heard them say it
                      Cm    Gm
My church offers no absolutes
                             Cm    A#
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
               D#
I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well
A#      D#     A#       D#    A#      D#m A#
Aaaaaaaaa    aaaaaaaaamen. Aaaaaaaamen. Amen



[Chorus](2x)
              Gm
Take me to church
                                               D7
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                                                A#
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

[Verse 2]
Gm                     Cm
If I'm a pagan of the good times
Gm                Cm
My lover's the sunlight
A#                    Cm
To keep the Goddess on my side
Gm               Cm
She demands a sacrifice
F
To drain the whole sea
D#
Get something shiny

Gm                      Cm            Gm
Something meaty for the main course
                       Cm          A#
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
D#
That looks plenty
D#
This is hungry work



[Chorus](2x)
              Gm
Take me to church
                                               D7
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                                                A#
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
                 Cm
Offer me that deathless death
     Em
Good God, let me give you my life

[Bridge]
D#            A#                D7           Gm
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
        D#            A#             D7           Gm
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
        D#            A#          D7           Gm
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
     D#          A#
Only then I am human

      D7           Gm     F     D#
Only then I am clean

A#      D#     A#       D#m       A#
Amen. Amen. Amen



[Chorus]
              Gm
Take me to church
                                               D7
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                                                A#
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
