[Key of E (but actually in F#, so capo up 2 frets]
[I'm a little unsure about some of these chords; the songbook has some
 mistakes, and I compiled these from the guitar part, the piano part, and my
 ear.  Maybe there should be some (9)'s on some of those naked chords, and
 maybe some of those 6's should be 7's...]

[intro]

E5        B5                E5                A5 
Everybody loves you, and they want to know your story
        E5 (9 fr.)          F#(9)       A5               B5
You go riding out a mystery, concealed in all your glory
            C#5                 Ab5          A5              E5
But when it comes to flesh and bones, you remind me of Shallot
B5              A5    B5                  A5    E5 - E5  E5
Only made of shadows, even though you're not

I remember how I spent all my energy and time
With affected conversation, trying to pry inside your mind
You are as beautiful as truth, and as empty as a shell
      B5                A5          B5                 A5
And I came to you one night, and it made me feel like hell

  Ab5      C#5                   F#5     A5 - B5
Ohhh, to reach through all your surface
Ab5      C#5           F#5   A5 - B5
Just to find an empty pool
       C#5               Ab5      A5                E5
And to suffer all your pride as I lay down by your side
        B5                A5                  B5   A5
And you swallowed up my heart, and left me a fool
          E5   B5   A5   E5   F#(9)   A(9)   B5 (11 fr.)   B5    
Left me a fool

Everybody loves a hero, an image to create
The antithesis of everything inside ourselves we hate
But you better close your eyes when it's time for them to die
'Cause you'd hate to think the life you'd built upon them was a lie

Ohhh, to reach through all your surface
Just to find an empty pool
And to suffer all your pride as I lay down by your side
And you swallowed up my heart, and left me a fool
Left me a fool

I resign myself to silence, I will never blow your cover
No one ever has to know who the hero took for lover
But it comes to mind as you blaze on, as brilliant as a star
How many you've left behind, how many casualties there are

Ohhh, to reach through all your surface
Just to find an empty pool
And to suffer all your pride as I lay down by your side
And you swallowed up my heart, and left me a fool
          E5   B5   A5   E5   F#(9)   A(9)   B5 (11 fr.)   E.   
Left me a fool



NOTE:  These chords are hard.  I usually play this song 3 half-steps above the
way it's written here (i.e., in the key of G).  You can't pick it correctly in
G, but the chords are far easier.
