And yet they are false prophets
Verse 1
[G]
I was never one for good and evil

A woman of the world, cynic of the steeple

Well, I don't believe in God more often than not

I was your new, naive disciple

Down on my knees praying
[C]
Left hand on the Bible
[D]
Layin' on the altar, feedin' a false idol
[C] [D] [Em7]
Hungry for more, more, more

And you gained a believer
[G]
When I lost my head and self-respect
[C] [G]
Swearin' you were heaven-sent

Some kind of creature, a counterfeit Christ

I don't like sweet wine, but this time
[Em]
I saw the bottle through
[Em]
Knelt down and communed

Whatever devil had its way with me in you

[C] [G] [D] [C]
Amen, I walked into the lion's den
