(Intro) 
B B Abm F# x3
E (022100@1) F# (244322@1)(Verse 1)
         B (x2444x@1)                AbmHere (133111@4)you find me in between
           F#Heaven (244322@1)and Hell my dear
      B (x2444x@1)                     Abm (133111@4)       
Where nothing's what it seems
             F# (244322@1)                    
It's just as well I fear
    B (x2444x@1)                   Abm (133111@4)           
I'm giving you the creeps
      F# (244322@1)             E (022100@1)           F# (244322@1)   
And a farewell kiss to go into the unknown

B (x2444x@1)                     Abm (133111@4)              
Saw you standing there
            F# (244322@1)                         
Outside the music hall
    B (x2444x@1)                    Abm (133111@4)           
You come out for some air
          F# (244322@1)                           
Uncertain curtain call
    B (x2444x@1)                  Abm (133111@4)             
And everyone just stared
         F# (244322@1)           E (022100@1)               
When you took the stage that night                                       
F# (244322@1)                                     
Something's not right

(Pre-Chorus)                                       
          Abm (133111@4)          E (022100@1)                                   
You're up there took the stairs
       B (x2444x@1)              C#m (x13321@4)               
To the stars all alone
         Abm (133111@4)          E (022100@1)                
You left all the lights burning
      B (x2444x@1)           C#m (x13321@4)                  
But nobody'a home
  Abm (133111@4)          E (022100@1)            B (x2444x@1)      C#m (x13321@4) E (022100@1)F#I (244322@1)believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
                                       
Now they sing along

(Chorus)
B (x2444x@1)                  EHelp (022100@1)me, Help me won't you?
Abm (133111@4)               F#Sing (244322@1)me, sing me one last song?

  Abm (133111@4)   F# (244322@1)   E (022100@1)   Em~~~      
Save me from myself

(Verse 2)
       B (x2444x@1)                 Abm (133111@4)           
Here I find you in between
           F# (244322@1)                          
Heaven and Hell again
      B (x2444x@1)                      G#mm         
Where nothing's what it seems
             F# (244322@1)                        
It's just as well my friend
    B (x2444x@1)                   Abm (133111@4)            
I'm giving me the creeps
      F# (244322@1)        E (022100@1)                 F# (244322@1)  
And a farewell to arms, and legs, and heads, and hearts

(Pre-Chorus) 
          Abm (133111@4)          E (022100@1)
