Sarah Mclachlan - Building A Mystery

Intro   Bm    G     |D Dsus D  A   ||x2
 
Verse 1
   Bm                 G    D               A
   You come out at night    that's when the energy comes
      Bm                G              D           A
   and the dark side's light    and the vampires roam
      Bm          G                  D         A
   you strut your rasta wear and your suicide poem
      Bm                G       D          A            E
   and a cross from a faith that died before Jesus came
           G         Asus   A
   you're building a mystery

   Bm    G     |D Dsus D  A   |

   Bm             G     D                    A
   You live in a church where you sleep with voodoo dolls
      Bm                      G             D                A
   and you won't give up the search for the ghosts in the halls
      Bm                   G           D                 A
   you wear sandals in the snow and a smile that won't wash away
      Bm                 G                   D             A              
   can you look out the window without your shadow getting in the way
      E                    G
   oh you're so beautiful with an edge and a charm
   E                    G         Asus    A
   but so careful when I'm in your arms
   
Chorus
   Bm            G        D          A
  'Cause you're working   building a mystery
 Bm    G     D         A        
   holding on and holding it in
   Bm          G       D           A
   yeah you're working building a mystery
   Bm    G       D    A   
   and choosing so carefully

Verse 2
               Bm            G    D                 A
   You woke up screaming aloud a prayer from your secret god
         Bm            G      D                A
   you feed off our fears and hold back your tears
   Bm              G        D               A
   Give us a tantrum and a know it all grin
   Bm                  G           D              A
   just when we need one when the evening's thin
 E                      G 
   Oh you're a beautiful a beautiful fucked up man
 E                          G       Asus   A      
   you're setting up your razor wire shrine.
