Nick Cave — Christina The Astonishing

D
Christina the Astonishing
 
            Gm
Lived a long time ago
She was stricken with a seizure

              D
At the age of twenty-two
They took her body in a coffin

              Gm
To a tiny church in Liege
Where she sprang up from the coffin

              D
Just after the Agnus Dei
She soared up to the rafters

               Gm
Perched on a beam up there
Cried "The stink of human sin

   Eb               D
The stink Is more that I can bear"

Eb Bb G#        Gm
Oh, oh, ohohoh, ohoh- oh oh Rpt

Eb Bb G#        Gm   D
Oh, oh, ohohoh, ohoh- oh oh, oh
