[C]When I think of [G]heaven [Am] (Deliver me in a [G]black-winged bird) [C]
[G]I think of [Am]flying [G] down into a [C]sea of pens and [G]feathers and
[Am]All other other [G]instruments of [C]faith and sex and [G]God in the belly of a [Am]black winged [G]bird.
[Am]Don`t try to [Cadd9]feed me. [Am] `Cause I`ve been [Fmaj7]here before and [C]I deserve a [D]little more.
{soc}
[G]I be[Am]long [C]in the [D]service of the [G]Queen. I be[Am]long [C] any[D]where but in bet[G]ween.
She`s been [Am]crying. [C] I`ve been [D]thinking. And [G]I [Am]am the [C]Rain King. [D]
{eoc}
I said Mama, Mama, Mama, why am I so alone?
I can`t go outside. I`m scared I might not make it home.
Well, I`m alive, I`m alive, but I`m sinking in.
If there`s anyone at home at your place, darlin`, why don`t you invite me in?
Don`t try to bleed me. `Cause I`ve been there before and I deserve a little more.

[G]I be[Am]long [C]in the [D]service of the [G]Queen. I be[Am]long [C] any[D]where but in bet[G]ween.
She`s been [Am]lying. [C] I`ve been [D]sinking. And [G]I [Am]am the [C]Rain King. [D]
{eoc}
[Am] Hey, I only [C]want the same as [G]anyone. [Am] Henderson is [C]wait[G]ing for the [Am]sun.
Oh, it seems night [C]endlessly be[G]gins and [Am]ends. After all the [C]dreaming I [G]come home a[C]gain.

When I think of heaven (Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of dying. Lay me down in a field of flame and heather.
Render up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a black-winged bird.
Don`t try to bleed me. `Cause I`ve been here before and I deserve a little more. [D] [D]

[G]I be[Am]long [C]in the [D]service of the [G]Queen. I be[Am]long [C] any[D]where but in bet[G]ween.
She`s been [Am]dying. [C] I`ve been [D]drinking. And [G]I [Am]am the [C]Rain King. [D]
{eoc}
Well I said that [G]I [Am]am the [C]Rain King.[D] Well I said, [G]I, I, I, [Am]I, I, [C]Yeah, yeah, yeah, [D]yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well [G]I [Am]am the [C]Rain King. Yeeeeaaaah!
