Intro: Bm , G , D , A (x2)

      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/F          G
        You're building a mystery

Bm , G , 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 gie up the search for the ghosts in the halls
                 Bm                    G                D                       A
You wear your sandals in the snow and a smile that won't wash away
             Bm                G                         D                         A
Can you look out the window withour your shadow gettin in the way
E                               G
Oh you're so beautiful with an edge and a charm
E                                A
But so careful when im in your arms
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           Bm          G       D         A

You woke up screaming aloud a prayer from your secret god
Bm                     G                 D                   A
and you feed off our fears and hold back your tears
 Bm            G                 D             A
Give us a tantrum and through it all grin
Bm             G                           D             A
just when we need one when the evenings thin
E                              G
Oh you're a beautiful, a beautiful fucked up man
E                              G
You're setting up your razor wire shrine
Bm          G               D               A
Cause you're working, building a mystery
Bm                 G
Holding on and holding it in
Bm                 G           D                   A            Bm          G
Yeah you're working, building a mystery and choosing so carefully
