Bm G D A
You come out at night that's when the energy comes
Bm G D A
And the dark side's light and the vampires roam
Bm G D A
You strut your rasta wear and your suicide poem
Bm G D A E
And a cross from a faith that died before jesus came
G/F G
You're building a mystery
Bm, G, D, A
Bm G D A
You live in a church where you sleep with voodoo dolls
Bm G D A
And you won't gie up the search for the ghosts in the halls
Bm G D A
You wear your sandals in the snow and a smile that won't wash away
Bm G D A
Can you look out the window withour your shadow gettin in the way

Oh you're so beautiful with an edge and a charm

But so careful when im in your arms

'Cause you're working, building a mystery
Bm G D A
Holding on and holding it in
Bm G D A Bm G D A
Yeah you're working, building a mystery and and choosing so carefully
Bm G D A
You woke up screaming aloud a prayer from your secret god
Bm G D A
and you feed off our fears and hold back your tears
Bm G D A
Give us a tantrum and through it all grin
Bm G D A
just when we need one when the evenings thin
E G
Oh you're a beautiful, a beautiful fucked up man
E G
You're setting up your razor wire shrine
Bm G D A
Cause you're working, building a mystery
Bm G
