                    G5                      F5    C5      G5
When the arrogant goddess of love came to steal my shoes
                     G5                     F5     C5   G5  
She had a white hot pistol and a homemade heart tattoo
          F5                C5                G5
Singing one's to give and one's to take away
    F5                     C5                   G5
But neither of them will keep you off your knees
      F5                 C5                G5
The children bowed and bolted off the stage
           F5                        C5                     G5 
While the lion and the lamb kept fighting for the shade tree

                G5                    F5   C5    G5
When the winsome god of war came to set me free
                   G5                     F5  C5   G5   
He had a couple of coke bottles full of gasoline
         F5             C5            G5    
Singing all I love is all that I allow
        F5                   C5          G5
And he blew me a kiss of a big burned hand
   F5                   C5              G5 
I nearly choked with smoke and fell down
            F5                      C5                 G5  
While the lion and the lamb kept shooting at a tin can

When the gun shy goddess of love came back to patch things up
            G5                                  F5    C5   G5
She had a purple heart and mother's milk in a plastic cup
          F5                C5             G5
Singing one's to lay you gently in the grave
      F5                 C5               G5   
And one's the flag you fold before you go
           F5                C5                G5
When the curtain rose the crowd was blown away
           F5                       C5                   G5
While the lion and the lamb kept fucking in the back row
