D5                         G5          D5   
he stands on the alter so stout and erect
D5                           A5                
the hair bristles up on the back of my neck
D5                            G5             D5 
his creamy white collar doth tame the wild beast
D5  G5      A5           D5
i, i'm in love with a priest

he speaks so discreetly and beckons to me
come forth to the rail i'll give comfort to thee
i'll hear your confession and give you release
i, i'm in love with a priest

G5
God save me father
D5
i surely have sinned
G5
a scotch and a water
  A5
a tonic & gin
    D5
but hell or high whiskey
   G5           D5
i will make my peace
D5  G5      A5           D5
i, i'm in love with a priest

i love his black cassock, his promise and vow
i worship the sweat that rolls down from his brow
though many have suffered with cause to repent
i dare not desert him for six weeks of lent

the hand lifts the spirit, his head tilts to mine
to thirst him is human, to quench is divine
he fills me with glory, the longing has ceased
i, i'm in love with a priest

God save me father
i surely have sinned
a scotch and a water
a tonic & gin
but hell or high whiskey
i will make my peace
i, i'm in love with a priest
D5                                  G5            D5   
now don't weep me daughters - it's not what you think
D5                         A5
it's only a guinness, the father of drink
D5                         G5            D5 
if anything's rising that would be the yeast
(N/C )  A5           D5
i'm in love with a priest.
D5  G5   A5           D5 
i'm in love with a priest.(Repeat)
