[Verse 1]
My lover's got
humour
She's the gigg
le at a funera
l
Knows everybod
y's disapprova
l
I should've wo
rshipped her s
ooner
If the Heavens
ever did spea
k
She is the las
t true mouth p
iece
Every Sunday's
getting more
bleak
A fresh poison
each week
'We were born
sick, you hear
d them say it
My church offe
rs no absolute
s
She tells me '
worship in the
bedroom'
The only heave
n I'll be sent
to
Is when I'm al
one with you
I was born sic
k, but I love
it
Command me to be well
Aaaaaaaaa a
aaaaaaaamen. A
aaaaaaamen. Am

*The G F# & F are power chords moving downwards*
[Chorus]
Take me to chu
rch
I'll worship l
ike a dog at t
he shrine of y
our lies
I'll tell you
my sins so you
can sharpen y
our knife
Offer me that
deathless deat
h
Good God, let
me give you my
life
Take me to chu
rch
I'll worship l
ike a dog at t
he shrine of y
our lies
I'll tell you
my sins so you
can sharpen y
our knife
Offer me that
deathless deat
h
Good God, let
me give you my
life
[Verse 2]
If I'm a pagan
of the good t
imes
My lover's the
sunlight
To keep the Go
ddess on my si
de
She demands a
sacrifice
To drain the w
hole sea
Get something
shiny
Something meat
y for the main
course
That's a fine
looking high h
orse
What you got i
n the stable?
We've a lot of
starving fait
hful
That looks tas
ty
That looks ple
nty
This is hungry work
[Chorus]
Take me to chu
rch
I'll worship l
ike a dog at t
he shrine of y
our lies
I'll tell you
my sins so you
can sharpen y
our knife
Offer me that
deathless deat
h
Good God, let
me give you my
life
Take me to chu
rch
I'll worship l
ike a dog at t
he shrine of y
our lies
I'll tell you
my sins so you
can sharpen y
our knife
Offer me that
deathless deat

Good God, let
me give you my
life
[Bridge]
No masters or
kings when the
ritual begins
There is no sw
eeter innocenc
e than our gen
tle sin
In the madness
and soil of t
hat sad earthl
y scene
Only then I am
human
Only then I am
clean
Oh, A- men. A-
men. A- men
[Chorus]
Take me to chu
rch
I'll worship l
ike a dog at t
he shrine of y
our lies
I'll tell you
my sins so you
can sharpen y
our knife
Offer me that
deathless deat

Good God, let
me give you my
life
Take me to chu
rch
I'll worship l
ike a dog at t
he shrine of y
our lies
I'll tell you
my sins so you
can sharpen y
our knife
Offer me that
deathless deat
h
Good God, let
me give you my
life
