D          Em                  D/F#         G
  she said let's put a plastic bag over our heads
and then kiss and stuff 'til we get dizzy and fall on the bed
we were in heaven for five or six minutes and then we passed out
and I was so in love and thought I knew what love was all about

in church on Sunday making out in front of the preacher
you had a black shirt on with a big picture of Nietzsche
when we had done our thing for a full christian hour
I had made up my mind that there must be a higher power

  D     Em       Bm     G
a higher, higher power
  D     Em       Bm     G
a higher, higher power

at the Christmas party I held your head when you vomit
I held you up to brush your teeth and then I kissed your stomach
realised there on your bed
the room was lit only by the telly
and it's a perfect night for feeling melancholy

a higher, higher power
a higher, higher power
higher, higher power
higher, higher power
a higher, higher power
a higher, a higher power
