Jesus hangs behind the glass

Above venetian doors

                    GG Piano Chord

His window box boasts crimson flowers fresh cut the day before

CC Piano Chord 

And you couldn't find a smile
FF Piano Chord 

If you nailed it to his face
GG Piano Chord 
                AmAm Piano Chord 
                  GG Piano Chord 

But Jesus Christ hangs his head with grace

And its Christened me with wonder

Verse 2:

They come in bent-backed
Creeping 'cross the floor all dressed in black
Candles, thick as pillars, you can buy one off the floor

And the ceiling's painted gold
Mary's hair is red
The old come here to kiss their dead

(chorus)

Verse 3:

We made love on a bed
That sagged down to the floor
In a room that had a postcard on the door

Of Mirini's (sp?) Little Man
With an erection on a horse
It always leaves me laughing, leaves me feeling that, of course if

(Chorus)



Yesterday, I submitted the chords for "If Venice is Sinking" by
Spirit of the West.  I noticed, after sending it out, that the
chords in the chorus are wrong.  The chorus should be:

FF Piano Chord 

And if Venice is sinking
CC Piano Chord 
         GG Piano Chord 

I'm going under
FF Piano Chord 

'Cause beauty's religion
CC Piano Chord 
                  GG Piano Chord 
       (CC Piano Chord 
 - FF Piano Chord 
 - GG Piano Chord 
 - AmAm Piano Chord 
 - G)G) Piano Chord 

And it's Christened me with wonder
