Kiss Me Son Of God

They Might Be Giants


Tom: Bm

    D            D+           Em           Ddim7
I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage
             D              G               A    Bm
called the blood of the exploited working class
            G                                     Gm
but they've overcome their shyness.  now they're calling me 'your Highness'
        D      Bm      G       A      D   A  
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God

[Verse] 
    D            D+     Em             Ddim7
I destroyed the bond of friendship and respect
             D          G               A              Bm
between the only people left who'd even look me in the eye
      G                                Gm
now I laugh and make a fortune off the same ones that I tortured
             D  Bm   G       A   D   A  B7
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God

[Bridge]
            Em   A(b9)      D
I look like Jesus, so they say
       Em      A(b9)       D
but Mr Jesus is very far away
               F#                     Bm
now you're the only one here who can tell me if it's true
      G                     A
that you love me and I love me

[Chorus]
    D            D+           Em           Ddim7
I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage
             D              G               A    Bm
called the blood of the exploited working class
            G                                     Gm
but they've overcome their shyness.  now they're calling me 'your Highness'
        D      Bm      G       A      D   A  
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God
        D      Bm      G       A      D  
yes the world screams: Kiss me, Son of God
