Hozier - Take Me To Church
Verse 1
Em Am Em Am G
My lover's got humor, she's the giggle at a funeral
Am Em Am Em
Knows everybody's disapproval, I should've worshipped her sooner
Am Em Am G
If the Heavens ever did speak, she’s the last true mouthpiece
Am Em Am D
Every Sunday's getting more bleak, a fresh poison each week
C
We were born sick, you heard them say it
Em Am Em Am G
My church offers no absolutes, she tells me 'worship in the bedroom'
Am Em Am D
The only heaven I'll be sent to is when I'm alone with you
C
I was born sick, but I love it. Command me to be well
G C G Cm G Cm G
A-A-A-A-A- Amen Amen Amen
Chorus
N.C.*
(E)--3-2--2-1--| Em B7
Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
G
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Am Em N.C.** (E)--5-3--3-2--|
Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
Em B7
Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
G
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Am Em N.C.**
Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
Verse 2
Em Am Em Am G
If I'm a pagan of the good times, my lover's the sunlight
Am Em Am D
To keep the Goddess on my side she demands a sacrifice
C
Drain the whole sea, get something shiny
Em Am Em Am G
Something meaty for the main course, that's a fine looking high horse
Am Em Am D
What you got in the stable? We've a lot of starving faithful
C
That looks tasty, that looks plenty, this is hungry work
Chorus
N.C.* Em B7
Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
G
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Am Em N.C.**
Offer me my deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
Em B7
Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
G
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Am Em N.C.**
Offer me my deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
Bridge
C G B7 Em
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
C G B7 Em
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
C G B7 Em
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
C G B7 Em D G/B C
Only then I am human, only then I am clean Oh
G C G Cm G Cm G
Oh Amen Amen Amen
Chorus
N.C.* Em B7
Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
G
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Am Em N.C.**
Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
Em B7
Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
G
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Am Em N.C.** Em
Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
