D Christina the Astonishing Gm Lived a long time ago She was stricken with a seizure D At the age of twenty-two They took her body in a coffin Gm To a tiny church in Liege Where she sprang up from the coffin D Just after the Agnus Dei She soared up to the rafters Gm Perched on a beam up there Cried "The stink of human sin D# D The stink Is more that I can bear" Chorus: D# A# G# Gm Oh, oh, ohohoh, ohoh- oh oh Rpt D# A# G# Gm D Oh, oh, ohohoh, ohoh- oh oh, oh Christina the Astonishing Was the most astonishing of all She prayed balanced on a hurdle Or curled up into a ball She fled to remote places Climbed towers and trees and walls To escape the stench of corruption The stench of human corruption Into an oven she did crawl Chorus Christina the Astonishing Behaved in a terrifying way She would run wildly through the streets Jump in the Meuse and swim away Christina the Astonishing Behaved in terrifying manner Died at the age of seventy-four, died at the age of seventy-four In The Convent of St Anna Chorus | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA# D D# Gm G# Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
