Well it's been getting so hard,

My dreams are getting so strange
I'd like to tell you everything I see   -Main Riff Twice W/ 2nd Guitar-


Pre-Chorus:

I see a man at the back 
As a matter of fact
His eyes are as red as the sun
And a girl in the corner 
Let no one ignore her 'cause 
She thinks she's the passionate one

and it turned into a ballroom blitz
        E5                        G5
And the girl in the corner said "Boy I wanna warn you"
       A5                      E5
And it turned into a ballroom blitz

Verse 2:

I'm reaching out for something
touching nothing's all I ever do   -Main Riff Twice W/ 2nd Guitar-

I softly call you over
When you appear there's nothing left of you   -Main Riff Twice W/ 2nd Guitar-


Pre-chorus:

Now the man at the back is ready to crack
as he raises his hands to the sky
And the girl in the corner is everyone's moaner
she could kill you with a wink of her eye

E5  G5            E5                        G5

                     A5                               C5
And the band started leaping 'cause they all stopped breathing

And the girl in the corner said "Boy I wanna warn you"
