Intro: G

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

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

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