[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
