Intro:   E   F#   G#   C#m   x 2

C#m              C#m/C
She don't really want my love, 
         E            F#                 A           G#
But she won't set me free, she wants to hold me
C#m                 C#m/C
She's gonna make me blow my mind, 
      E         F#              A         G#
If I don't get away, my Doctor told me 
 
     F#m
I'm walkin' around talkin' to myself
                                     G#
I don't know where I'm at, half the time 
  F#m
I look at her picture, I see her face, 
                                     G#
I think of what she is, and I start cryin'

Chorus:

E     F#        G#                                C#m
Gaslight, that ought to be her name, 'cuz she's everybody's flame
E     F#           G#                 C#m
Gaslight, you can turn her on to the level you desire
E     F#          G#              C#m
Gaslight, she'll light you up and set you a' fire 
E     F#       G#                      C#m
Gaslight, you better be cool or you'll wind up a fool like me


There has got to be a way
To change that girl, you know how much I need her
She knows what she's got on me, 
And she knows, I can't bring myself to leave her

I'm walkin' around talkin' to myself
I don't know where I'm at, half the time 
I look at her picture, I see her face, 
I think of what she is, and I start cryin'

Chorus x 2


Chords used:
C#m    x46654
C#m/C  x36654
E      022100
F#     244322
F#m    244222
G#     466544
A      577655
C#m*   x44454

At the end of the chorus there is a quickly alternating C#m / C#m* x4. 
You may want to try transposing up 3 semitones (start on Em) then the Em/D# is an easier 021000. 
Either way, using barre chords sounds cooler.
