You can play an E but E7 sounds closer to the recording - play it like 022130 for full sound


Capo 3

E7
Six long days, seventh day He rested
       E7
Said, "There's one sure way humans can be bested
         E7
Give 'em wine and song, fire and lust 
        E7
When it all goes wrong I'm the man to trust
               G              
And they'll be all my own, all mine together
          G
They will sing my praise, sing my name forever
     E7
I am God Above, Lord God Almighty, mama


But that's not all, I got me a flame
And its a swinger's ball if you don't know my name
Oh well you think its hot down there in July
I got the means and a kitchen to fry
Then you'll be on my own, all mine together
All my doubting children locked away forever
I am God Above, Lord God Almighty, mama

Bridge:
A                                              G
I made the heaven and earth, I made the stars above
A                                  C  B
Is it too much to ask for a little love


So I'll tip my hat to all of your creations
You can fly like birds, destroy entire nations
Go and curse my name with your last breath
'Cause all I brought to your life was death
And now you're all my own, all mine together
Well you sing my praise, sing my name forever
I am God Above, Lord God Almighty, mama
