The Beautiful South – One God chords

[Intro]
D - G x2

D[Verse 1]
                Em          G        DLike the toupee on a fading fame
                       G             DThe final whistle in a losing game
                   Em         G               DThick lipstick on a five year old girl
                               G              DIt makes you think that it's a plastic world

                          EmA plastic world and we're all plastic too
D                                                Gm      DJust a couple of different faces in a dead man's queue
                                         EmThe world is turning Disney and there's nothing you can do
D                                           G       Gmaj7      DYou're trying to walk like giants but you're wearing Pluto's shoes


[Pre-Chorus]
        Em                                               DAnd the answers fall easier from the barrel of a gun
        DThan it does from the lips of the beautiful and the dumb
    Em                 A                DThe world won't end in darkness, it'll end in family fun
               DWith Coca Cola clouds behind a Big Mac sun

G - D - G

D[Verse 2]
                      Gmaj6  G         DA howling scream in a church asleep
                        G              DAnd rusty bicycle in an ocean deep
                  A7               E7Like an ear-ring on the newly born
D                G                     DStrong perfume on a winter's morn

                           A                   Emin7          DThe world is perfumed and we're perfumed as well
                      GPetals from a flower that blossomed in hell
           D                               Emin7And you can't breathe the air through the thickness of the smell
          D                            G     Gmaj7   DAnd you can't see the hair through the grease of the gel


[Pre-Chorus]

        Em       A                   Emin7And the answers fall easier from the barrel of a gun
    DThan it does from the lips of the beautiful and the dumb
    Emin7
The world won't end in darkness, it'll end in family fun
     DWith Coca Cola clouds behind a Big Mac sun

[Outro]
GYou say there's only one God, you could do with two or three
A                             Amaj6Your Jesus Christ is hired out, like the slag of Galilee
     G                                                    A7Well, if Peter is a prostitute, then what does that make me


[Refrain]
             DThere's only one God, there should be two or three
Gmaj6                                 GOne God, there should be two or three
     DOne God, there should be two or three
       GTwo or three


[Refrain] x2
          G       D...Two or three
