NOTE: This is what I heard. Kane's guitar parts are hard to tab so I don't know about 
harmonics in the solo. I tabbed the keyboard and guitar parts.

Keyboard Intro
Guitar Intro
Bass (4x)

Keyboard Riff 1 (2x)
You're with your baby
And you're parked alone
On a summer night
You're deep in love

Keyboard Riff 2
But you're deeper in the woods
You think you're doin' alright

Keyboard Riff 1 (2x)
Did you hear that voice
Did you see that face
Or was it just a dream
This can't be real

Keyboard Riff 2
That only happens, babe
On the movie screen

Keyboard Riff 3
Oh, but he's back
He's the man behind the mask
And he's out of control
He's back
The man behind the mask
And he crawled out of his hole

Keyboard Riff 1 (2x)
You're swimmin' with your girl
Out on lovers' lake
And the wind blows cold
It chills your bones

Keyboard Riff 2
But you're still on the make
That's a bad mistake

Keyboard Riff 1 (2x)
But the moon was full
And you had a chance
To be all alone
But you're not alone

Keyboard Riff 4
This is your last dance
And your last romance

Keyboard Riff 3
Yeah, cause he's back
He's the man behind the mask
And he's out of control
He's back
The man behind the mask
And he crawled out of his hole

Guitar Solo

Keyboard Riff 5
Oh, if you see him comin'
Get away if you can
Just keep on runnin'
Run as fast as you can
He's a dangerous, dangerous man

Keyboard Riff 1 (2x)
And he's out tonight
And he's watchin' you
And he knows your house

Keyboard Riff 4
No, don't turn out the lights

Guitar Riff

Keyboard Riff 3
Yeah, cause he's back
He's the man behind the mask
And he's out of control
He's back
The man behind the mask
And he's after your soul

Keyboard Riff 6 (4x)
He's back
He's the man behind the mask
And he's out of control
He's back
The man behind the mask
And he's after your soul
He's back
He's the man behind the mask

Keyboard Riff 6 (4x)
Guitar Outro
And he's out of control
He's back
The man behind the mask
And he's after your soul
