Idiot Prayer Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
They're taking m[Em]e down my friend[D]
[Em]and as they usher me off[D] to my end
will I bid you adie[A]u?[G]
Or be seeing you so[A]on?[G]
If what they say round here [Em]is true
then we'll m[D]eet again
[A]me and you.
[Em]My time is at han[D]d, my dove
[Em]They're gunna pass me to th[D]at house above
Is Heaven just for [A]victims, dear?[G]
Where only those i[A]n pain go?[G]
Well it takes two to t[Em]ango
We will meet a[D]gain, my love
[A]I know
[Em]If you're in Heaven then you'll f[D]orgive me, dear
[Em]Because that's what they [D]do up there
If you're in Hell, then w[A]hat can I say[G]
You probably deserved in[A] anyway[G]
I guess I'm gunna find ou[Em]t any day
For we'll m[D]eet again
And [A]there'll be Hell to pay
[Em]Your face comes to me[D] from the depths, dear
[Em]Your silent mouth mouths, [D]'Yes", dear
Dark red and big [A]with blood[G]
They're gunna shut me do[A]wn, my love[G]
They're gunna launch me [Em]into the stars
Well, all thing[D]s come to pass
G[A]lory hallelujah
[Em]This prayer is for you[D], my love
[Em]Sent on the wings of a[D] dove
An idiot prayer of e[A]mpty words[G]
Love, dear, is strictl[A]y for the birds[G]
We each get what we[Em] deserve
My little s[D]now white dove
R[A]est assured
