ED
I can't feel this way much longer
A E (Fill 1)
Expecting to survive
ED
With all these hidden innuendoes
A E (Fill 1)
Just waiting to arrive
ED
It's such a wavy midnight
A E (Fill 1)
When you slip into insane
ED
Electric angel rock and roller
A E (Fill 1)
I hear what you're playing
Gmaj7Dmaj7
It's an orangy sky
Gmaj7Dmaj7
Always it's some other guy
Gmaj7Dmaj7
It's just a broken lullaby
EBAEBA
Bye bye love bye bye love
EBAEBA
Bye bye love bye bye love
E D A E + (Pre-Verse)
ED
Substitution mass confusion
A E (Fill 1)
Clouds inside your head
ED
Involving all my energies
A E (Fill 1)
Until you visited
EDA
With your eyes of porcelain and of blue
E (Fill 1)
They shock me into sense
ED
You think you're so illustrious
A E (Fill 1)
You call yourself intense
Gmaj7Dmaj7
It's an orangy sky
Gmaj7Dmaj7
Always it's some other guy
Gmaj7Dmaj7
It's just a broken lullaby
EBAEBA
Bye bye love bye bye love
EBAEBA
Bye bye love bye bye love
