A5                          E5
There's a place I don't want you to know of
        A5                  G5
Hidden deep in a blindfolded heart
         C5                 G#5
Where the desperate walk in silence,
         A#5                  D#5
Waiting for the ghosts to depart

         A5                         E5
There's a game I don't want you to know of
      A5               G5
Masquerade, Cirque du D?cadence
   C5               G#5
A pawn in an empty chessboard
        A#5                   D#5
Moved around by a hand of a fool

       F5       A#5
Never played it safe
        D#5     C5
It's a wicked game
     F5             G#5      A#5
Any hand, any call, I'm in

           D#5      G#5                       C#5
It said: "Love like you've never been hurt
     D#5        G#5                          C#5
And dance till dawn like you've just been born
   D#5    G#5                   A#5
A perfect toy made by perfect tools
         B5                        C#5
Playing Ring Around the Rosie with a crowd of fools
        D#5        G#5                           C#5
Take a hold of my hand, I have sights to show you
D#5          G#5                        C#5
Gingerbread house, Pleasure Island, Big Blue
D#5          G#5                      A#5
Turn off the light, close your eyes wide shut
     B5                 C#5         G#5
And welcome the precious dark"

        A5                   E5
I have seen far, I've never seen close
           A5                   G5
There are no mirrors on my wall
C5                      G#5
Silent is the call of my ocean
       A#5                D#5
And the sirens washed ashore

         A5                    E5
All the sins they have long shadows
        A5                          G5
Turn the switch and the past comes alive
        C5                      G#5
Live and learn, 1,2,3, know your ABC
          A#5                    D#5
It's their answer to every "why"

       F5       A#5
Never played it safe
        D#5     C5
It's a wicked game
     F5             G#5      A#5
Any hand, any call, I'm in

           D#5      G#5                       C#5
It said: "Love like you've never been hurt
     D#5        G#5                          C#5
And dance till dawn like you've just been born
   D#5    G#5                   A#5
A perfect toy made by perfect tools
         B5                        C#5
Playing Ring Around the Rosie with a crowd of fools
        D#5        G#5                           C#5
Take a hold of my hand, I have sights to show you
