- - - ///
You come out at night
///
That's when the energy comes
And the dark sides light
///
And the vampires roam
You strut your rasta wear
///
And your suicide poem
And a cross from a faith that died
Before Jesus came
CM7 EM9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -EM9
You're building a mystery
- - - ///
You live in a church
///
Where you sleep with voodoo dolls
And you won't give up the search
///
For the ghost in the halls
You wear sandals in the snow
///
When a smile won't wash away
And can you look out the window
///
Without your shadow getting in the way
You're so beautiful
With an edge and a charm, but
Esus CM7 EM9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -EM9
So Careful when I'm in your arms
Cause you're working
GM6 EM9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -EM9
Building a mystery
Em CM7 GM6 EM9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -EM9
Holding on, holding it in
Yeah, you're working
GM6 EM9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -EM9
Building a mystery
/////
And choosing so carefully
You woke up screaming aloud
///
A prayer from your secret god
You feed off our fears
///
And hold back your tears, oh
You give us a tantrum
///
And a know it all grin
Just when we need one
///
When the evening's thin
You're a beautiful
A beautiful fucked-up man
You're setting up your
CM7 EM9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -EM9
razor, wire shrine
Cause you're working
GM6 EM9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -EM9
Building a mystery
Em CM7 GM6 EM9 -EM9/G -EM9/F# -EM9
