Take Me To Church

Chords

Standard

Em             C
My lover's got humour 
Em                    C
She's the giggle at a funeral 
G                    C 
Knows everybody's disapproval 
Em                         C
I should've worshiped her sooner 

Em                   C
If the Heavens ever did speak 
Em                    C
She is the last true mouthpiece 
G                       C
Every Sunday's getting more bleak 
Em             C
A fresh poison each week 
Am                   C
We were born sick, you heard them say it 

Em                  C
My church offers no absolutes 
Em                          C
She tells me worship in the bedroom
G                       C
The only heaven I'll be sent to 
Em                C
Is when I'm alone with you 

Am               C
I was born sick, but I love it 
C
Command me to be well 
G,C,G   C,G   C,G
Amen. Amen. Amen 

            Em
Take me to church 
                                              B
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies 
                                                G
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife 
                C
Offer me that deathless death 
     Em
Good God, let me give you my life 
(X2)

Em                     Am
If I'm a pagan of the good times
Em              Am 
My lover's the sunlight 
G                       C
To keep the Goddess on my side 
G                C
She demands a sacrifice 
Am
To drain the whole sea 
C
Get something shiny 

Em                       Am
Something meaty for the main course 
Em                     Am
That's a fine looking high horse 
G                    C
What you got in the stable? 
Em                       C
We've a lot of starving faithful 

Am
That looks tasty 
C
That looks plenty 
C
This is hungry work 
 
             Em
Take me to church 
                                              B
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies 
                                                G
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife 
               C
Offer me that deathless death 
     Em
Good God, let me give you my life 
(X2)

Am             G              B        Em
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
         Am          G             B          Em 
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
        Am         G        B               Em
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene 
      Am        G
Only then I am human 
      B         Em
Only then I am clean 

(Em,G,Am,C) # (Strum each 4X)

Amen. Amen. Amen
