C5       F5
No night to stay in
     C5       F5
Bad moon is rising again
      C5  
Dice rolls 
      Ab5
And you burn
     C#5      C5
Come down I fear
         F5        Bb5
As that cold wheel turns
    C5       F5
I know what I know
     C5            F5
Sad clone's been sleeping around
     C5             Ab5
To stroke the right nerve
      C#5           C5
Whose needs do I serve
      F5               Bb5     C5
As Catherine's wheel turns
Ab5                 C#5           Eb5 (4) Eb5
She was always the first to say gone
Ab5            C#5           Eb5 (4) Eb5
She's got her catherine wheels on
Ab5        C#5           C5
Always the first to say gone
    C5     F5      
Go kindly with him
        C5        F5 
To his blind apparition
       C5          F5
Whose face creases up
      C#5        C5
With age gone grey
        F5            Bb5
He'll back here one day
          Ab5       C#5           Eb5 (4) Eb5
She was always the first to say gone
Ab5                 C#5           Eb5 (4) Eb5
She's got her catherine wheels on
Ab5        C#5           C5
Always the first to say gone
 Ab5        C#5           C5
                         C5
She's got her catherine wheels on
  C5
Wheels on
Ab5     C#5    Eb5 (4) Eb5
Catherine wheels
Ab5     C#5    Eb5 (4) Eb5 REPEAT 3 Times

Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Repeat 4 Times

Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5
              She's gone Vanished in the night
Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5
Broke off the logic of light
Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Ab5 
He woke Tore the covers back
                    Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5 Eb5
(use same chord changes as before) 
Found he was empty inside
So they were told 
When the moon would rise
The best time to leave with your soul
She's gone
But towards the light

                          Eb5
Watching her whole life unfold
Eb5           C#5            Ab5
            Bruises come out dark

D#94   Bb5       D#94   Bb5   D#94   Bb5   
Repeat 5 times

Eb5 Eb5 Eb5   Ab5
 So strong was his hold on her
                         Eb5 Eb5 Eb5
Regarded by some as his slave
                 Ab5
He spoke as in a stranger's tongue
                          Eb5  Eb5
To spare us and drive you away
  C#5              G5
Bruises come out dark

(dont be put off by the strange chord names...basically they are the A form you 
play at the first fret, barred futher up,and the little finger  you put on and 
off. up one fret and so on.11 th chords are basically just the top 5 strings all 
held on one (appropriate) fret.The song begins by singing G# (no)and then G 
(night).Thats probably the hardest bit.Just mail if you need to know more.
