Chords with lyrics

this is a tricky one,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFROH_nzqfE

its actually on a baritone acoustic tuned to BB and played with a capo on 3
if you downtune every string a tone to DGCFAD you can play it normally,
alternatively you can stay in standard tuning and transpose - 2
and play with a dm, (wont be as deep but might work ok)


E minorEm       A minorAm  E minorEm
My lover's got humour
            A minorAm   G+G
She's the giggle at a funeral
            A minorAm   E minorEm
Knows everybody's disapproval
              A minorAm  E minorEm
I should've worshipped her sooner
           A minorAm   E minorEm
If the Heavens ever did speak
           A minorAm   G+G
She is the last true mouth piece
            A minorAm   E minorEm
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
        A minorAm  D MajorD
A augmentedA fresh poison each week
          C majorC           E minorEm
'We were born sick, you heard them say it
           A minorAm  E minorEm
My church offers no absolutes
               A minorAm  G+G
She tells me 'worship in the bedroom'
             A minorAm  E minorEm
The only heaven I'll be sent to
          A minorAm  D MajorD
Is when I'm alone with you
        C majorC
I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well
G+G   C majorC   G+G    C majorC  G+G   C minorCm G+G  G-F#/F# E minorEm
Aaaaaaaaa  aaaaaaaaamen. Aaaaaaaamen. Amen

[Chorus](2x)
       E minorEm
Take me to church
                        B7B7
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                        G+G
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
         A minorAm
Offer me that deathless death
   E minorEm            Am-G-G-F# = *power chords
Good God, let me give you my life

[Verse 2]
E minorEm           A minorAm
If I'm a pagan of the good times
E minorEm        A minorAm
My lover's the sunlight
G+G          A minorAm
To keep the Goddess on my side
E minorEm        A minorAm
She demands a sacrifice
D MajorD
To drain the whole sea
C majorC
Get something shiny

E minorEm           A minorAm      E minorEm
Something meaty for the main course
            A minorAm     G+G
That's a fine looking high horse
          A minorAm    E minorEm
What you got in the stable?
             A minorAm
We've a lot of starving faithful
D MajorD
That looks tasty
C majorC
That looks plenty
C majorC
This is hungry work

G/F# F#/F

[Bridge]
C majorC      G+G        B7B7      E minorEm
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
    C majorC      G+G       B7B7      E minorEm
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
    C majorC      G+G     B7B7      E minorEm
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
   C majorC     G+G
Only then I am human

   B7B7      E minorEm   D MajorD   C majorC
Only then I am clean

G+G   C majorC   G+G    C minorCm    G+G   C minorCm G+G  G-F#/F# E minorEm
