My daddy was a sinner, but my mother was a saintly person

Church of the Holy Spook,
(GG) G
Church of the Holy Spook,

intro riff (G, C, G, D,G) X 2
solo (over verse)
I believe in the Church of the Holy Spook, I believe that he's in me
The Tao is like a river , so float along with me
When the sacred blood of the Holy Ghost is boiling in my veins
I think of Jesus on the cross and I scream out for his pain
