Verse 1

Em             Am    Em
My lover's got humour
                      Am     G
She's the giggle at a funeral
                  Am         Em
Knows everybody's disapproval

I should've worshipped her sooner
                    Am       Em
If the heavens ever did speak
                    Am        G
She's the last true mouthpiece

Every Sunday's getting more bleak
               Am       D
A fresh poison each week
             C
We were born sick, you heard them say it
Em                  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
I was born sick, but I love it
C
Command me to be well
