Here it goes! All transcription credit goes to Alon Drori, Boaz, Moho, Leo McPartland, Peter and ondrej. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' 1.

F/C C G/B C F/C I don't believe in an interventionist God C G/B C F/C But I know, darling, that you do C G/B C F/C But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him
Not to inCtervene when it came to you Not to toucFh a hair on your head To leave Dmyou as you are And iGf He felt He had to direct you Then direct you into my arms
