Don't be in love

I'm not your savior

Just a dream

Dressed up to scare you

On Halloween

Don't look now

The sun's gone forever

And I won't be either
Dm C Bb C Dm
If I get a ride
[Chorus]
F
'Cause if I could be free
Why would I stay chained?
Bb
And if that makes you sad
You should be ashamed
F Bb C
And maybe I'm not the one to blame after all
Dm Bb F C
I'm saving up my body for when I'm in love
Dm Bb F C
But if you want me now, you should call me up

'Cause I'm losing my desire for being alive
Dm Bb F C
Tonight, in Michigan, in 1975

F
And the big bad wolf rode his bike into town
Bb
And he huffed, and he puffed, and pushed the kids around
F
Says he's come to find a girl to make his wife
Bb C
But we're nobody's darlings
[Chorus]
Dm Bb F C
I'm saving up my soul for when I'm in love

So if you want me now, you should call me up
Dm Bb F C
'Cause I'm losing my desire for being alive

If you have a hard time singing along, play Dm7 and Bbsus2. The melody relies heavily on the C note instead of D (the minor tonic).
Also, in true Gaslight fashion, they probably use D tuning, which makes the chords Em7, Csus2, G and Dsus4.
