INTRO: D#m - Bb

(Keep changing between two low notes in all chords)

D|----------------|
A|-----------6----| (Little riff before some D#m)
E|----6--9--------|

FIRST VERSE:
                  D#m                                                          
It starts with a whisper, a shimmering light, 
                Bb                            D#m
the wink of a flashbulb, and bats in the night.
                D#m                                                 
Most people don't notice. Most people don't care, 
                Bb                         D#m
but how can I blame them when I have been there?
                         D#m                                                   
But now it's driving me crazy, it's driving me mad.
                 Bb                         D#m
I can't find no rythm and i'm pissed at the band.
                    D#m                                            
But I would rather be crazy, I would rather be mad, 
                 Bb                   D#m
than lost in the silence, hollow and drab.


CHORUS:
            B                     F#                            
So I will try my best at keeping secrets from the world 
       Bb                        D#m              D#5
such a strong and witty world- it's out of my league
               B                        F#                                  
And if you're not impressed, why don't you try it for yourself,
   Bb                             D#m             D#5
infront of everybody else, as the band begins to play?


SAME CHORDS INTRO: D#m - Bb

SECOND VERSE:
               D#m    
I slept with an angel, or maybe a queen
                    Bb                                  D#m
I never talked to the devil, but he's been talking to me
                   D#m 
And I swallowed an ocean, an ocean of wine
                       Bb                               D#m
And the fruit pickers daughters, are just grapes on the vine
                     D#m 
So if you see me at showtime, looking like hell
                Bb                   D#m
I was up after midnight, ringing a bell


CHORUS X 2
            B                    F#                            
So I will try my best at keeping secrets from the world 
       Bb                        D#m              D#5
such a strong and witty world- it's out of my league
               B                        F#                                  
And if you're not impressed, why don't you try it for yourself,
   Bb                             D#m             D#5
infront of everybody else, as the band begins to play?
