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

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
