[Verse 1]
C
Jesus hangs behind the glass
F
Above venetian doors
G Am G
His window box boasts crimson flowers fresh cut the day before
C
And you couldn't find a smile
F
If you nailed it to his face
G Am G
But Jesus Christ hangs his head with grace
[Chorus]
F
And if Venice is sinking
C G
I'm going under
F
'Cause beauty's religion
Am G C F G Am G C
And its Christened me with wonder
[Verse 2]
C
They come in bent-backed
F
Creeping 'cross the floor all dressed in black
G Am G
Candles, thick as pillars, you can buy one off the floor
C
And the ceiling's painted gold
F
Mary's hair is red
G Am G
The old come here to kiss their dead
[Chorus]
F
And if Venice is sinking
C G
I'm going under
F
'Cause beauty's religion
Am G C F G Am G C
And its Christened me with wonder

F
That sagged down to the floor
G Am G C
In a room that had a postcard on the door

Of Marini's Little Man
F
With an erection on a horse
G Am G
It always leaves me laughing, leaves me feeling that, of course if
