VERSE

My lover's got humor

She's the giggle at a funeral

Knows everybody's disapproval

I should've worshiped

her sooner

If the heavens ever did speak

She's the last true mouthpiece

Every Sunday's getting more bleak

A fresh poison each week

We were born sick, you heard them say it

My church offers no absolutes

She tells me worship in the bedroom

The only heaven

I'll be sent to

Is when

VERSE

I'm alone with you

I was born sick, but I love it

Command me to be well

A, Amen,

Amen,

amen

| G | D |

CHORUS

Take me to church,

I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife

Offer me that deathless death

good

God, let me give you my life

Take me to church,

I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife

Offer me that deathless death good

God, let me give you my life

VERSE

If I'm a pagan of the good times my lover's the sunlight

Keep the goddess on my side, she demands a sacrifice

Drain the whole sea get something shiny

Something meaty for the main course,

that's a fine

looking high horse

What you got in the stable?

We've a lot of starving faithful,

that looks tasty

That looks plenty,

this is hungry work

CHORUS

Take me to church

I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife

Offer me that deathless death

good

God Let me give you my life

Take me to church,

I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife

Offer me my deathless

good

God let me give you my life

BRIDGE

No masters or kings when the ritual begins

There is no sweeter innocence than

sin.

In the madness and soil of

that

sad earthly scene

Only then I am human,

only

then I am clean.

CHORUS

Oh...

Oh,

amen, amen

CHORUS

Take me to church,

I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife

Offer me my deathless death good

God, let me give you my life

Take me to church,

I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies

I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife

Offer me my deathless death good

God, let me give you my life
