Tuning: Standard


Chords:
Chord diagramA minorAm Chord diagramFF Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramE MajorE Chord diagramDmDm

#Verse: basically Chord diagramA minorAm throughout every verse, with an exception in verse 3

 Chord diagramA minorAm
 I have seen you in the Turkish baths
 I didn't know if I should cry or laugh
 Nakedness has a sweet, sweet smell
 Which sends me down to the pits of hell
 The steam, that rises form the water
 Tells me you're satan's daughter
 If I am the devil's son
 Then into the darkness we should run

#Chorus:

Chord diagramFF      Chord diagramC majorC
If sodomy is not just for animals
Chord diagramE MajorE        Chord diagramA minorAm
Human flesh, is not just for cannibals
   Chord diagramFF              Chord diagramC majorC
I'll feast on your body if you'll feast on mine
    Chord diagramE MajorE           Chord diagramA minorAm
'Cause blood is thicker, and redder than wine
  Chord diagramFF          Chord diagramC majorC
Oh, lay ourselves out, upon the table
Chord diagramE MajorE               Chord diagramA minorAm
Ravish each other 'till we're no longer able
Chord diagramFF           Chord diagramC majorC
When juices mix in the heat of the fray
   E-------(let ring)--------
It'll make a formidable marinade

 Chord diagramA minorAm
 If I put my hand in Pandora's box
 And I was smitten by a deathly pox
 If I was a leper or the warts on a toe
 Would you think well of me, when I go
 If I wrote my name with a razorblade
 In the palm of your hand, would it still fade?
 If I kissed your lips would you think it wrong
 Or would you come along with me

If sodomy is not just for animals
Human flesh, is not just for cannibals
I'll feast on your body if you'll feast on mine
'Cause blood is thicker, and redder than wine
Oh, lay ourselves out, upon the table
Ravish each other 'till we're no longer able
When juices mix in the heat of the fray
It'll make a formidable marinade

 Chord diagramA minorAm
 I'll roast you on the spit like a fatted calf
 When you're done I'll split your body in half
 Climb into your redenned core
 Curl up tight, and close the door
 Chord diagramDmDm
 In your body I'll dream of things
 Like geese and mustard
 Cabbages and kings
 Am<
 Thermos full of chocolate sauce
 And men who live on only remorse

If sodomy is not just for animals
Human flesh, is not just for cannibals
I'll feast on your body if you'll feast on mine
'Cause blood is thicker, and redder than wine
Oh, lay ourselves out, upon the table
Ravish each other 'till we're no longer able
When juices mix in the heat of the fray
It'll make a formidable marinade

#suggestions for playing:

sounds nicely with a walking bass line
