Someone Saved My Life Tonight chords
Elton John
Capo I
G C 2x
G C G C
When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights
G F C
Curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
F G
Prima Donna Lord you really should have been there
F G C
Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
Cm C A7
And it's one more beer and I don't hear you anymore
C A7
We've all gone crazy lately
C A7 C G
My friends out there rolling round the basement floor
D
ooooooooo
C G Am C Am C
And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
C G Am C
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G C G
You nearly had me roped and tied
C A7
Altar bound, hypnotized
G C
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
A7
You're a butterfly
C A7
And butterflies are free to fly
C G A7 C
Fly away, high away, bye bye
C G Am G F
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
G C 2x
G C G C
Never realised the passing hours of evening showers
G F C
Slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
F G
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
F G C
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating Queen
Cm C
It's four o'clock in the morning
A7
Damn it, listen to me good
C A7
I'm sleeping with myself tonight
C A7 C G
Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive
D
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
C G Am C Am C
And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
C G Am C
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G C G
You nearly had me roped and tied
C A7
Altar bound, hypnotized
G C
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
A7
You're a butterfly
C A7
And butterflies are free to fly
C G A7 C
Fly away, high away, bye bye
C G Am G F
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
G C 2x
Am C G C
And I would have walked head on into the deep end of the river
A7
Clinging to your stocks and bonds
A7 C
Paying your H.P. demands forever
Am C Em G
Coming in the morning with a truck to take me home
A7 C Em C
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
A7 C Em C
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
A7 C
Someone saved my life tonight
Em C A7 C
So save your strength and run the field you play alone
C G Am C Am C
And someone saved my life tonight, sugar bear
C G Am C
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G C G
You nearly had me roped and tied
C A7
Altar bound, hypnotized
G C
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
A7
You're a butterfly
C A7
And butterflies are free to fly
C G A7 C
Fly away, high away, bye bye
C G Am G F
