F#5 F#sus You ask, in uncertain voice, F#5 what you should do, E5 D5 as if there were a choice but to carry on C#5 miming the song F#5 and hope that it all works out right. F#sus Tonight it all seems so strange - F#5 F#5 my spirit feels rigid, my body deranged; F#5 F#sus still that's only from one point of view F#5 E5 and we can't have illusion between me and you, D5 C#5 my constant friend, ever close at hand - F#5 you and the undercover man.

D5 C5 C#5 D5 G5 A5 When the madness comes, let it flood on down and over me sweetly, D5 G5 A5 let it drown the parts of me weak and blessed and damned, D5 G5 A5 let it slake my life, let it take my soul and living completely, D5 C5 C5 C5 C5 let it be who I am. A5 D5 G5 A5 There may not be time for us all to run in tandem together - D5 G5 A5 the horizon calls with its parallel lines.
