Chords

(Most of this can just be played as power chords and still sound fine.) (Intro) B B G#m F# x3 E F# (Verse 1)
         B                  G#m
Here you find me in between

           F#
Heaven and Hell my dear

      B                       G#m         
Where nothing's what it seems

             F#                      
It's just as well I fear

    B                     G#m             
I'm giving you the creeps

      F#               E             F#     
And a farewell kiss to go into the unknown

B                       G#m                
Saw you standing there

            F#                           
Outside the music hall

    B                      G#m             
You come out for some air

          F#                             
Uncertain curtain call

    B                    G#m               
And everyone just stared

         F#             E                 
When you took the stage that night                                       

F#                                       
Something's not right
(Pre-Chorus)
          G#m            E                                     
You're up there took the stairs

       B                C#m                 
To the stars all alone

         G#m            E                  
You left all the lights burning

      B             C#m                    
But nobody'a home

  G#m            E              B        C#m   E  F#
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
Now they sing along (Chorus)
B                    E
Help me, Help me won't you?

G#m                 F#
Sing me, sing me one last song?

B                 C#m
Help me, Help me, somebody help me

  G#m     F#     E     Em~~~      
Save me from myself
(Verse 2)
       B                   G#m             
Here I find you in between

           F#                            
Heaven and Hell again

      B                        G#m         
Where nothing's what it seems

             F#                          
It's just as well my friend

    B                     G#m              
I'm giving me the creeps

      F#          E                   F#    
And a farewell to arms, and legs, and heads, and hearts
(Pre-Chorus)
          G#m            E                                     
You're up there took the stairs

       B                C#m                 
To the stars all alone

         G#m            E                  
You left all the lights burning

      B             C#m                    
But nobody'a home

  G#m            E              B        C#m   E  F#
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
Now they sing along (Chorus)
B                    E
Help me, Help me won't you?

G#m                 F#
Sing me, sing me one last song?

B                 C#m
Help me, Help me, somebody help me

  G#m     F#     E      
Save me from myself   

  G#      F#       E
Take me from this Hell, Now they sing along

You're up there took the stairs

       B                C#m                 
To the stars all alone

         G#m            E                  
You left all the lights burning

      B             C#m                    
But nobody'a home

  G#m            E              B        C#m   E  F#
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
Now they sing along (Chorus)
