Sweet Lord In Heaven by Mike Doughty
Palm-muted
[Verse 1]
D A
Oh, I have felt Cobain's sarcoma growing on
D
This will of mine to drag me down into the water
A D
The joy I feel before I drown
G
And the Lord's hand moves on the scheme of my nerves
D
In the chemicals swimming and the substance of the earth
G
His love's so great but the soul singers spurn him
D A D
To sing their love to some unknown reckless girl
[Verse 2]
D
They sing to great Queen Heroina
A D
The comfort that she warms them with
Their music swells with all their yearning
A D
They are ashamed to sing for him
G
Who has built these shells that our spirits knock inside
D
And weep for their release in the onrush of the tide
G
Of the Lord's great seas that will boil when he returns
D A D
To pluck us off the face of this sad and dirty world
[Verse 3]
D
I saw Sam Cooke and Ian Curtis
A D
At the door of His golden realm
They sang His name, sweet Lord in Heaven
A G D A D
And then the Lord, He let them in
* The ending may be
A G D A G D
And then the Lord, He let them in
