Take Me To Church Chords

[Verse 1]
 
Em                 Am     Em
    My lover's got humour
                      Am       G
She's the giggle at a funeral
                  Am          Em
Knows everybody's disapproval
                           Am      Em
I should've worshipped her sooner
                    Am         Em
If the Heavens ever did speak
                     Am          G
She is the last true mouthpiece
                       Am          Em
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
               Am           D
A fresh poison each week
                   C/G
'We were born sick,' you heard them say it
Em                      Am         Em
    My church offers no absolutes
                             Am        G
She tells me 'worship in the bedroom'
                        Am        Em
The only heaven I'll be sent to
                  Am         D
Is when I'm alone with you
                 C/G
I was born sick, but I love it
C/G
     Command me to be well
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
(C/G)    G      C  G     Cm  G    Cm G
Aaaaaaaa-aaa    Aaa-men  Aaa-men  Aaa-men
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G F#  F#   F       Em
      Take me to church, I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
B                                                    G
   I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
              Am
Offer me that deathless death
      Em
Good God, let me give you my life
 
Am G  G    F#      Em
      Take me to church, I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
B                                                    G
   I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
              Am
Offer me that deathless death
      Em                         Am G  G F#
Good God, let me give you my life
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em                        Am          Em
    If I'm a pagan of the good times
               Am         G
My lover's the sunlight
                       Am        Em
To keep the Goddess on my side
              Am          D
She demands a sacrifice
                        C/G
To drain the whole sea
                     Em
Get something shiny
                        Am           Em
Something meaty for the main course
                      Am            G
That's a fine looking high horse
                    Am        Em
What you got in the stable?
                        Am         D
We've a lot of starving faithful
                  C/G
That looks tasty
                   C/G
That looks plenty
                G F#
This is hungry work
 
 
[Chorus]
 
     F# F    Em
Take me to church, I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
B                                                   G
   I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
         Am
Offer my deathless death
      Em
Good God, let me give you my life
 
Am G  G    F#      Em
      Take me to church, I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
B                                                   G
   I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
            Am
Offer me my deathless death
      Em                         Am G  G F#
Good God, let me give you my life
 
 
[Bridge]
 
C                G              B         Em
   No masters or kings when the ritual begins
         C          G              B          Em
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
   C               G            B           Em
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
     C         G           B        Em
Only then I am human, only then I am clean
 
G/D   G/C   C   G
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
(G)    C   G     Cm  G    Cm  G
Aaaaaaaaaaa-men  Aaa-men  Aaa-men
