	(Intro) 
B B Abm F# x3
E   F#

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

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

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

	(Chorus)
B                    E
Help me, Help me won't you?
Abm                 F#
Sing me, sing me one last song?
B                 C#m
Help me, Help me, somebody help me
  Abm     F#     E     Em~~~      
Save me from myself

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

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

	(Chorus)
B                    E
Help me, Help me won't you?
Abm                 F#
Sing me, sing me one last song?
B                 C#m
Help me, Help me, somebody help me
  Abm     F#     E      
Save me from myself   
  Ab      F#       E
Take me from this Hell, Now they sing along 

	(Bridge)

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Abm    F#     E
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

          Abm            E                                     
You're up there took the stairs
       B                C#m                 
To the stars all alone
         Abm            E                  
You left all the lights burning
      B             C#m                    
But nobody'a home
  Abm            E              B        C#m   E  F#
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
                                       
Now they sing along

	(Chorus)
