[Verse]
F E Fmaj7b5 They call you ecstasy,nothing ever sticks to you F E Not Velcro, not Scotch Tape Fmaj7b5 Not my arms dipped in glue F E Not if I wrap myself in nylon Fmaj7b5 A piece of duct tape down my back F E Love pierced the arrow with a 12 Fmaj7b5 And I can't get you back
[Chorus]
F E Fmaj7b5 Ah, ecstasy, ecstasy F E Fmaj7b5 Ecstasy, ah, ecstasy
[Verse]
F E Across the streets an old Ford Fmaj7b5 They took off its wheels, the engine is gone F E In it seat sits a box Fmaj7b5 With a note that says, "Goodbye Charlie, thanks a lot" F E I see a child through a window with a bib Fmaj7b5 And I think of us and what we almost did F E The Hudson rocketing with light Fmaj7b5 Ships pass the Statue of Liberty at night
[Chorus]
F E Fmaj7b5 Ah, ecstasy, ecstasy F E Fmaj7b5 Ecstasy, ah, ecstasy
[Verse]
F E Some men call me St. Ivory Fmaj7b5 Some call me St. Maurice F E I'm smooth as alabaster Fmaj7b5 With white veins running through my cheeks F E Big stud through my eyebrow Fmaj7b5 A scar on my arm that says, "Domain" F E I put it over the tattoo Fmaj7b5 That contained your name
[Chorus]
F E Fmaj7b5 Ah, ecstasy, ecstasy F E Fmaj7b5 Ecstasy, ah, ecstasy
[Verse]
F E The moon passing through a cloud Fmaj7b5 A body facing up is floating towards a crowd F E And I think of a time and what I couldn't do Fmaj7b5 I couldn't hold you close, I couldn't become you F They call you ecstasy E Fmaj7b5 I can't hold you down, I can't hold you up F E I feel like that car that I saw today Fmaj7b5 No radio, no engine, no hood F E I'm going to the cafe, I hope they've got music there Fmaj7b5 And I hope those guys can play F But if we have to part E I'll have a new scar right over my heart Fmaj7b5 I'll call it ecstasy
[Chorus]
F E Fmaj7b5 Ah, ecstasy, ecstasy F E Fmaj7b5 Ecstasy, ah, ecstasy
