Em7 - Em9 - Em6

Em - Cm7 - Gm6 - Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6

Em - Cm7 - Gm6 - Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6

Em              Cm7
You come out at night
Gm6                  Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
That's when the energy comes
Em                Cm7
And the dark sides light
Gm6               Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
And the vampires roam
Em               Cm7
You strut your rasta wear
Gm6                Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
And your suicide poem
Em                  Cm7         Gm6
And a cross from a faith that died
Gm6     Cm7    Esus4  Esus4
Before Jesus came
Cm7                   Em9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -Em9
You're building a mystery


Em - Cm7 - Gm6 - Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6


Em             Cm7
You live in a church
Gm6                    Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
Where you sleep with voodoo dolls
Em                       Cm7
And you won't give up the search
Gm6                Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
For the ghost in the halls
Em                   Cm7
You wear sandals in the snow
Gm6                 Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
When a smile won't wash away
Em                  Cm7
And can you look out the window
Gm6                       Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
Without your shadow getting in the way

Esus4
You're so beautiful
Cm7
With an edge and a charm, but
Esus4          Cm7             Em9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -Em9

Em                  Cm7
You woke up screaming aloud
Gm6                  Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
A prayer from your secret god
Em                Cm7
You feed off our fears
Gm6                Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
And hold back your tears, oh
Em             Cm7
You give us a tantrum
Gm6             Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
And a know it all grin
Em             Cm7
Just when we need one
Gm6           Em9/Em7/Em9/Em6
When the evening's thin

Esus4
