- - - 9/7/9/6
- - - 9/7/9/6
You come out at night EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 That's when the energy comes
And the dark sides light EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 And the vampires roam
You strut your rasta wear EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 And your suicide poem
And a cross from a faith that died
Before Jesus came -/G -/F# - You're building a mystery
- - - 9/7/9/6
You live in a church EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 Where you sleep with voodoo dolls
And you won't give up the search EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 For the ghost in the halls
You wear sandals in the snow EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 When a smile won't wash away
And can you look out the window EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 Without your shadow getting in the way
You're so beautiful
With an edge and a charm, but -/G -/F# - So Careful when I'm in your arms
Cause you're working -/G -/F# - Building a mystery -/G -/F# - Holding on, holding it in
Yeah, you're working -/G -/F# - Building a mystery EM9/EM7/EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 And choosing so carefully
You woke up screaming aloud EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 A prayer from your secret god
You feed off our fears EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 And hold back your tears, oh
You give us a tantrum EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 And a know it all grin
Just when we need one EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 When the evening's thin
You're a beautiful
A beautiful fucked-up man
You're setting up your -/G -/F# - razor, wire shrine
Cause you're working -/G -/F# - Building a mystery -/G -/F# - Holding on, holding it in
Yeah, you're working -/G -/F# - Building a mystery - And choosing so carefully
(Lead).
- - - - - - - - - -
Ouh, you're working -/G -/F# - Building a mystery.................... EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 ........... Holding it in
Yeah, you're working -/G -/F# - Building a mystery EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 And choosing so carefully
Oh Yeah, you're working -/G -/F# - Building a mystery EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 Holding on, holding it in
Yeah, you're working -/G -/F# - Building a mystery EM9/EM7/EM9/EM6 And choosing so carefully
You're Building a mystery.
