[Verse 1]
Em Am Em Am G
My lover's got humour, 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 is 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
I was born sick, but I love it. Command me to be well

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
To 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 C
That looks tasty, that looks plenty, this is hungry work

Only then I am human, only then I am clean Oh
