Biography:
The Church is an alternative rock band which formed in Sydney, Australia in 1980. Initially linked in with neo-psychedelia acts of the period, their music later became largely defined by the interplay of guitarists Marty Willson-Piper and Peter Koppes coupled with the abstract lyrics of bassist/singer Steve Kilbey. Their debut album, Of Skins and Heart (1981), earned them their first radio hit "The Unguarded Moment". They were originally signed to EMI's Parlophone label

Myrrh (Church)
Am / G / Am / / /
[A D A E D A C B C B G] x6 [ ] x4
Am Em F# G
Emerald haunt in overdrive
Nightmare descent into Jericho City
Camel dust heralds our arrival
New Christ beneath the drum kit moon
F G
Oh lord we are threatened again
In the slipstream pull of the federal men
Plummet in some seamless night
Down here to earth it's hopeless then
Am Em F# G
Apache gunmen in the boiling crowd
Who never got to meet you last time
We're interrupted by the telephone
You didn't think they were invented then
F G
Oh lord we need miracles
We need more wine and gold
We need slaves and roads and personal favours
We need microphones and manifolds
F#m E F#m E
How can you be so invisible, give me the nerves to see
A D F#m E
Privilege on privilege, an unwanted discovery
Am Em F# G

Am Em F# G
So now we're cruising down this shuddering highway
With a dead sun shining on my back
And we talk about the way people treat us back there
The hollow laughter the pain in their eyes
F G
Oh my lord I trust your intentions
But money strangles our love
Struggling like a fool with my junk and my jewels
You would have thought I'd had enough
F#m E F#m E
How can you be so invisible, give me the nerves to see
