I don't know if the name of Bm/Bb is correct, but that's how I play the chord.

Bm                    G
The only rule to stay alive 
Bm                            G
Just keep breathing you’ll be fine

You know she’s pulling up outside 
Bm                              G       F#
The car lights crawl across the curtain
Bm                         G
So put the gun back on the wall
Bm                         G
Take the suitcase from the wardrobe
Bm                        G
There’s a dead man on the floor
               Bm
He’s not going anywhere
                     G     F#
You’re moving to the door
 
B                      G
And everything he ever did
F#                       B
He only ever did for love
B                      G
And everything he ever said
F#                        B
Was only ever said for love
                     G
And now, now he lies dead,

He’s dead for love
                                 G   F#
His mind’s at ease, he sleeps in peace
 
Bm                     G
Your reflection in her eyes
Bm                   G

Bm                  G
And soon you’ll realise
Bm                    G     F#
This guy’s not going anywhere
Bm                         G
Now he’s done with you once more
Bm                           G
Race with the shadows to the door
Bm                          G
A guy like this needs to be sure
Bm                         G             F#
No one was there when the devil rode out before
 
B                      G
And everything he ever did
F#                       B

F#                        B
He only ever said for love
                     G
And now, now he lies dead,
F#                B
Oh, he’s dead for love
                                 G   F#
His mind’s at ease, he sleeps in peace
 
Bm
And in the shadows you will walk tall
Bm/Bb
And there you’ll stay until you fall

And when the final hour arrives
Em
It’s only lovers left alive
Em7
Wretched souls and gangsters’ molls
  B
Beyond the valley of the dolls

The story they will never tell

Because their lips are sealed

And everything you ever did
F#                        B
You only ever did for love
B                       G
And everything you ever said
