HOTEL WOMB - THE CHURCH (optional 2nd guitar playing capo 5 then transpose) [Intro] Em Bm x4 D A7sus4 Cadd9 x4 [Verse 1]
D                  A7sus4  Cadd9
Volcano pierce the air,    ashes block out the sun

D                      A7sus4                C
Down in the lair well I met her there with a price for everyone

D                              A7sus4          C
I paid eighty dollars for this wedding ring, I couldn't take it off if I tried

        D                  A7sus4                Cadd9
And the cactus sure tastes strangely sweet as it goes down inside
[Chorus]
Em             C          D         G
I'll dream I'm safe in my hotel womb

Em            C            D             G
Soft and soul made, it's a wonderful room
[Verse 2]
D                       A7sus4        Cadd9
A sudden voltage in the night, with a rainforest girl

      D                       A7sus4                 Cadd9
As we float downstream to the Amazon River where the black waters swirl

      D                   A7sus4                      Cadd9
I say, why are you people wearing those masks? I say, can we be reconciled?

         D                              A7sus4       Cadd9
She says the mother of the storm has to roam the sky searching for her child
[Chorus]
Em             C          D         G
I'll dream I'm safe in my hotel womb

Em            C            D             G
Soft and soul made, it's a wonderful room

Em         C          D         G
I wish I'm back in my hotel womb

Em               C             D             G
Slip through the crack to that wonderful room
[Bridge]

D   A7sus4  Cadd9   x2  (8 bars)
[Verse 3]
D                Am              Cadd9
Morning comes at last, and she's lying by my side

              D                            Am                  Cadd9
She's got the face of the widow that keeps following me and the body of my bride

       D                       Am                         Cadd9
I say, why are those buildings swaying like trees? I say, can we stop for a while?

         D                              Am                   Cadd9
She says can't you hear the city that's hidden in there? It's just another mile
[Chorus]
Em             C          D         G
I'll dream I'm safe in my hotel womb

Em            C            D             G
Soft and soul made, it's a wonderful room

Em         C          D         G
I wish I'm back in my hotel womb

Em               C             D             G
Slip through the crack to that wonderful room
[Outro] (repeat and fade with guitar solo) Em C D G
