Building A Mystery

Capo on 7th Fret

Em,Cadd9,G,D

Verse:

Em Cadd9

You come out at night

G D

that's when the energy comes

Em Cadd9

and the dark side's light

G D

and the vampires roam

Em Cadd9

you strut your rasta wear

G D

and your suicide poem

Em Cadd9

and a cross from a faith

G D A

that died before Jesus came

C D

you're building a mystery

Em Cadd9

You live in a church

G D

where you sleep with voodoo dolls

Em cadd9

and you won't give up the search

G D

for the ghosts in the halls

Em cadd9

you wear sandals in the snow

G D

and a smile that won't wash away

Em cadd9

can you look out the window

G cadd9

without your shadow getting in the way

Am

oh you're so beautiful

cadd9

with an edge and a charm

Am

but so careful

cadd9 D

when I'm in your arms

(Chorus)

Em, Cadd9,G,D

'Cause you're working

building a mystery

holding on and holding it in

yeah you're working

building a mystery

and choosing so carefully

Chords are the same as the first verse

You woke up screaming aloud

a prayer from your secret god

you feed off our fears

and hold back your tears

Give us a tantrum

and a know it all grin

just when we need one

when the evening's thin

Am, Cadd9, Am, Cadd9,D

Oh you're a beautiful

a beautiful fucked up man

you're setting up your

razor wire shrine.
