(Intro)
Open up song by strumming individual notes on C
(Verse 1)
C
I just kicked out the floor lights
Am Em
But the spotlight operator's shining shame on all my chosen words and my chosen words and my
G
Hip parading
(Pre-Chorus)
F Em Am
I can see him start to sneer
C
Get me out of here
F
Get me out of here
(Verse 2)
C Am
And what started out in earnest now seems more like a jest
Em G
And I was your concrete hero, is now an uninvited guest
(Pre-Chorus)
F Em Am
And the floor seats are sensing fear
C
Get me out of here
F
Get me out of here
(Chorus 1)
Am Em F
Could be the greatest rockstar ever
Am Em F
if you get off on loneliness
G
Cause it's a wilderness
F
It's like a wilderness
C Am
And the band said, come to,
Em F
we're waiting up for you,
C F
yeah they're waiting up for you,
G F
and you're backstage in the dark, yeah.
C Am Em F
Can you stand? The audience commands
C F
you to stand up for the band.
G
Well I think I lost my spark.
(Verse 3)
C
My damsel with the dowry
Am
walked into the hotel Bowery
Em G
Some junior banker's lusty conquest
(Pre-Chorus)
F Em Am
And I'm too shocked to shed a tear
C
Get me out of here.
F
Get me out of here.
(Chorus 2)
Am Em F
Could be the greatest rockstar ever
Who needs a new address.
C Am
Come to, Yeah!
Em F
we're waiting up for you
C F
yeah they're waiting up for you
G F
is everything alright? Yeah
C Am Em F
Can you stand? The audience commands
C F
you to stand up for the band
G
You're a creature of the night
Cadd9 G
She's a creature of the night
Cadd9 G
She's a creature of the night
(Short Instrumental)
F C F Am
F C F G
(Bridge)
F C
To a bus take me over the Golden Gate Bridge
F Am
to leftover peas and a note on the fridge
F C
She's holding the keys until the tone is abridged
F
but the message is clear
C Am E G
get me outta heeeere.
(Breakdown)
C Am
Crashing in the backstage, the show's a smashing great success (thank you darling)
Em G
The band's a gateway drug and I'm a tragic mess.
C
But one more time the lights they fade in
Am
This song's for you, my bashful maiden,
Em
whose face looked like my wife
G
is now as cold and calculating
F Am C
as a cosmetic surgeon's knife
Cadd9 G
Somebody save her life
Cadd9 G
Somebody save her life
(End Chorus)
C Am
The band said, come on dude
Em F
we're waiting up for you
C F
yeah they're waiting up for you
G F
is everything alright?
C Am Em F
Can you stand? The audience commands you to
C F
Stand up for the band
G
You're a creature of
Am Em F
The greatest rockstar ever
Am Em F
if you get off on loneliness
F G
Cause it's hard to get it right
F G
when you're a creature of the night
F G
She's a creature of the night
(Outro)
C - Strum the individual notes again and finish with one last chord after two measures
End
Thank you for viewing the tab! The only chord I really struggled with was the pre-chorus, but otherwise I think
it's all correct! Also I struggled to name certain sections of the song, so if anyone knows the specific
names of each little section that would be helpful! Thanks, and enjoy!
