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  
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  
"We were born sick"  
                     Em  
You heard them say it  

                    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             C  
I was born sick, but I love it  

Command me to be well

There is no sweeter innocence

Than our gentle sin  
       C/G         G            B7           Em  
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene

Only then I am human, only then I am clean
