Verse 1:
G C G
When I think of those East End lights

Muggy nights

Prima Donna lord you really should have been there
F G C
Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
Cm
And it's one more beer
A7
And I don't hear you anymore
C
We've all gone crazy lately
C#dim G
My friends out there rolling round the basement floor
D
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Chorus:
C G Am G
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear
C G Am
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G C Bm7
You nearly had me roped and tied
C C#dim
Altar-bound, hypnotized
G
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
C#dim
You're a butterfly
C
And butterflies are free to fly
C#dim G Bm7 C
Fly away, high away bye bye
C Bm7 Am G F
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Intro: (do twice)
Verse 2:
G C G
I never realized the passing hours
C
Of evening showers
G F C
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
F G
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
F G C
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen
Cm
It's four o'clock in the morning
A7
Damn it listen to me good

I'm sleeping with myself tonight

Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive
