[Verse 1]
 
A                                         F                        G
  Drifting through the halls with the sunrise(Holding on for your call)
                                          E   F                A
Climbing up the walls for that flashing light(I can never let go)
                                          F                         G
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine(Holding on for your call)
                                          E     F                A
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine(Maybe not tonight)
                                  F                        G
And the sun is up and I'm going blind(Holding on for your call)
                                 E  F               A
Another drink just to pass the time(I can never say no)
                                          F                         G
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine(Holding on for your call)
                                          E    F                 A
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine(Maybe not tonight)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                             F
It's a different kind of danger 
                             G
And the bells are ringing out
                          E
And I'm calling for my mother
      F                 A
As I pull the pillars down
                             F
It's a different kind of danger 
                              G
And my feet are spinning round
                       E
Never knew I was a dancer
        F              A
Till Delilah showed me how
 
A F G E Dm C A
 
 
[Interlude]
 
                   F
Too fast for freedom
                         G
Sometimes it all falls down
                           E
These chains never leave me
Dm       C               A
I keep dragging them around
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
                                                F                           G
Now I'm dancing with Delilah and her vision is mine(Holding on for your call)
                                      E    F                A
A different kind of danger in the daylight(I can never let go)
                                 F                           G
Took anything to cut you I can find(Holding on for your call)
                                       E    F                    A
A different kind of danger in the daylight(Can't you let me know?)
                                               F                         G
There is one more call and there is one more night(Holding on for your call)
                                    E  F               A
Taking the pills just to pass the time(I can never say no)
                                          F                         G
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine(Holding on for your call)
                                           E    F            A
Cause I'm gonna be free and I'm gonna be fine!(Maybe not tonight!)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                             F
It's a different kind of danger 
                             G
And the bells are ringing out
                          E
And I'm calling for my mother
      F                 A
As I pull the pillars down
                             F
It's a different kind of danger 
                              G
And my feet are spinning round
                       E
Never knew I was a dancer
        F              A
Till Delilah showed me how
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
                                                F                           G
Now I'm dancing with Delilah and her vision is mine(Holding on for your call)
                                      E    F                A
A different kind of danger in the daylight(I can never let go)
                                 F                           G
Took anything to cut you I can find(Holding on for your call)
                                       E    F
A different kind of danger in the daylight(Can't you let me know?)
 
C D F G
 
 
[Bridge]
 
C
  Strung up, strung out for your love
D
  Hang in, hung up, it's so rough
F
  I'm wrung and wringing out
G
  Why can't you let me know?
C
  Strung up, strung out for your love
D
  Hang in, hung up, it's so rough
F
  I'm wrung and wringing out
G                          A
  Why can't you let me know?
 
 
[Chorus]

It's a different kind of danger 
                             G
And the bells are ringing out
                          E
And I'm calling for my mother
      F                 A
As I pull the pillars down                 x2
                             F
It's a different kind of danger 
                              G
And my feet are spinning round
                       E
Never knew I was a dancer

Sometimes it all falls down
                           E
These chains never leave me                     x2
F                        A
I keep dragging them around

Oh man! So perfect. I've been obsessing over this song, it's so nice to find these ace chords. I guess I could have worked it out on my own, but I thank you for reinforcing my laziness :D
