Verse:
Em               Am  Em                       Am  G
   My lover's got humor, she's the giggle at a funeral
                         Am  Em                            Am  Em
Knows everybody's disapproval, I should've worshipped her sooner
                    Am       Em                     Am       G
If the Heavens ever did speak, she's the last true mouthpiece
                        Am      Em                 Am      D
Every Sunday's getting more bleak, a fresh poison each week
                  C
We were born sick, you heard them say it
Em                   Am      Em                              Am      G
 My church offers no absolutes, she tells me 'worship in the bedroom'
                        Am    Em                   Am     D
The only heaven I'll be sent to is when I'm alone with you
               C               C
I was born sick, but I love it. Command me to be well
            G2  C2 G2 Cm G2 Cm G2
Ay Ay Ay Ay Ay  Amen  Amen  Amen

Chorus:
G5-F#5 F#5-F5     Em2
       Take me to church I'll worship
                                  B2
Like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                                                 G2
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
               Am2                   Em2                    A5-G5 G5-F#5
Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
             Em2                                                  B2
Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                                                G2
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
               Am2                   Em2                     A5-G5 G5-F#5
Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life

Verse:
Em                      Am      Em                Am      G
 If I'm a pagan of the good times, my lover's the sunlight
                       Am    Em                 Am    D
To keep the Goddess on my side she demands a sacrifice
                   C
Drain the whole sea, get something shiny
Em                       Am        Em                       Am        G
 Something meaty for the main course, that's a fine looking high horse
                     Am   Em                         Am     D
What you got in the stable? We've a lot of starving faithful
                 C                   C
That looks tasty, that looks plenty, this is hungry work

Chorus:
G5-F#5 F#5-F5     Em2
       Take me to church I'll worship
                                  B2
Like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                                                 G2
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
               Am2                   Em2                    A5-G5 G5-F#5
Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
             Em2                                                  B2
Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
                                                G2
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
               Am2                   Em2                     A5-G5 G5-F#5
Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life

Bridge:
C          G                  B7        Em
 No masters or kings when the ritual begins
          C         G              B7         Em
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
        C           G           B7            Em
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
       C        G            B7        Em   D  Cmaj7 C
Only then I am human, only then I am clean
G2   C2 G2  Cm G2  Cm G2
Oh   Amen   Amen   Amen

                                                 G2
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
