DO#m2 SI LA
DO#m DO#7sus4 DO#m DO#sus2
This is no more than a story ‘bout a man I used to know
DO#m DO#7sus4 DO#m DO#sus2
No more than a story that you’ve heard ten times before
DO#m DO#7sus4 DO#m DO#sus2
He saw what he wanted and attraction made him tell
DO#m DO#7sus4 DO#m DO#sus2
She could never say no ‘cos false guilt will lead to Hell
DO#m DO#7sus4 DO#m DO#sus2
No matter what you say it don’t mean nothing cos its healed
DO#m DO#7sus4 DO#m DO#sus2
Love’s only skin-deep you gotta touch to know it’s real
DO#m DO#7sus4 DO#m DO#sus2
Time is not my enemy I’m still the same next week
DO#m DO#7sus4 DO#m SOL#
Love is just my energy don’t even have to speak
(notice the G# at the end of the 2nd part of the verse!)
LAadd9 FA#11
Lust don’t last forever
LAadd9 FA#11
You know that this ain’t right
LAadd9 FA#11
Burning in the dark
LAadd9 FA#11
It’s not your hearts you set alight
LAadd9 FA#11
If I could stop this somehow
LAadd9 FA#11
I’d be in there with my vice
LAadd9 FA#11
But I guess I’m just a lonely man
LAadd9 FA#11
Better go think twice
DO#m SI LA SOL#
She is so beautiful x4
(same chords as verse 1)
(C#m C#7sus4 C#m C#sus2 etc, with G# on the end)
What started as a private life is no more than a show
Libidos in a Speedo as the good times start to go
Take me back through history so I can re-arrange
The details of your meeting it’s the only way I’ll change
Wrestling with my angel all throughout the night
He couldn’t defeat my will and so he told me I was right
Show me my subconscience as you know I gotta find
The balance of my spirits and the essence of my mind
LAadd9 FA#11
Luck don’t last forever
You know that this ain’t right
You do not deserve her
So why d’you hold her tight?
If I could stop this somehow
I’d pray for good advice
But I guess I’m just a lonely man
Better go think twice
DO#m SI LA SOL#
She is so beautiful x4
LAadd9 SIadd11
You thought she was an angel
LAadd9 SIadd11
God chose her from above
LAadd9 SIadd11
And planted her right next to you
LAadd9 SIadd11
It’s a mirage of love
LAadd9 SIadd11
But when she breaks a mirror
LAadd9 SIadd11
You can break up as good friends
LAadd9 SIadd11
Just don’t tell your wife and kids
LAadd9 SIadd11
The cycle starts again
DO#m SI LA SOL#
Just a mirage of love (x4)
It’s a mirage of love (x4)
End on C#m
