[Chorus]
Am
My love, are you the devil?
C
I would worship you instead of him
Em
I have no time for confession
E
For I’m too busy committing sins
Am
My love is something special
C
I never met someone like you
Em
You‘d make me fall from heaven
E
But I know just what I do
[Verse 1]
Am
“Angel”, he calls me
Am
Does he know that I’m falling
Am
From a precipice that I tripped off long ago?
Fmaj7
“You’re so pure”, he says
Fmaj7
Does he know I’m forsaken?
Fmaj7
The original sinner
E
But soon he’ll know
Am
For if I’m going down
Am
I guess I’ll take you with me
Am
Naked in that garden
Am
Back at the beginning
C
Now in your arms
C
You’re faithless, for you pitched me
C
Against your holy father
E
And it seems I am winning
[Pre-Chorus]
E+
But I don’t
Esus
I feel your hands grabbing my throat
E
As you say
[Chorus]
Am
My love, are you the devil?
C
I would worship you instead of him
Em
I have no time for confession
E
For I’m too busy committing sins
Am
My love, you’re something special
C
I never met someone like you
Em
You made me fall from heaven
E
But I know just what I do
[Verse 2]
Am
“Devil”, you call me
Am
But seem to be enjoying
Am
The fruits of my labour that came to me too young
Fmaj7
When he stole my virtue
Fmaj7
I’m glad it seems to serve you
Fmaj7 E
That I was born a daughter and not a son
Am
For if I’m going down
Am
I guess I’ll take you with me
Am
Screaming birds sound an awful lot like singing
C
And I will tell you now
C
That I’m not even singing
E
There’s no escape for some
[Pre-Chorus]
E+
Least of all for me
Esus
I feel your lips kissing my feet
E
But even so
[Bridge]
Am Em C E
Oh, you call me a devil
Am Em C E
Oh, you call me a devil
[Outro]
Am C
You want me on my knees to pray
Em
Or play some other pleasing game
But never wonder
E
Where I must have learned it all
Am
You want me to transgress
C
While I am in my Sunday best
Em
And all the while have no respect
E
As you eat it up whole
Am
My body and my blood
C
You’ve claimed it now, so come drink up
Em
And there’s no need to be concerned
E Am
About what’s left when you are done because
C
You’ve got me on my knees to pray
Em
Or play some other pleasing game
But never wonder
E
Where I must have learnt it all
[Chorus]
Am
My love, are you the devil?
C
I would worship you instead of him
