[E] [A#]
[A] [C#m]
[A#]
[A] [C#m] All through [E] the summers, [A#] into [A] January, [C#m] I've been visiting [E] malls [A#] and
[A] monasteries,
[F#m] looking for [A] the necessary [B] body parts.
[D] [C#m] Limbs [C] and livers and [E] brains and [A#] hearts.
[A] I'll bring someone to life, it's what I want to do.
I want to create my own version of [C#] you.
[B]
[A#] [A]
[C#m] Well, it must be the [E] winter of [A#] my [A] discontent.
[C#m] I wish you'd have [E] taken me with you [A#] wherever you went.
[A]
[F#] They talk all [A] night [B] and they talk all [D] day.
[C#m] Not for [C] a minute do I [E] believe anything they [A#] say.
[A] I'm hoping someone to life, someone I've never seen.
You know what I mean, you know exactly what [C#m] I mean.
[E] [A#]
[A] [C#m] I'll take the [E] Scarface Pacino [A#m] and the Godfather [A] Vanduul, [C#m] mix it up in a [E] tank and [A#m] get a robot
[A] commander.
[F#] If I do [A] it out right [B] and put the head on [D] straight, [C#m] I'll be saved by [E] the creature that I [A#] create.
[A] [C#m] I'll get blood from [E] a cactus, [A#] gunpowder from [A] ice.
[C#m] I don't gamble [E] with cards [A#] and I don't shoot [A] no dice.
[F#] Can you look at my [A] face [B] with your sightless [D] eye?
[C#m] Can [C] you cross your heart [E] and hope to [A#] die?
[A] I'll bring someone to life, someone for real.
Someone who feels the way that I feel.
[C#m] [B]
[A#] [A]
[C#m] [E]
[A#] [A]
[C#m] I'll study Sanskrit [E] and Arabic [A#] to improve [A] my mind.
[C#m] I want to do things [E] for the benefit [A#] of all [A] mankind.
[F#] I say to [A] the willow tree,
[B] don't weep [D] for me.
[C#m] I'm saying the [E] hell to all things [A#] that used to [A] be.
[C#m]
Well I get into [E] trouble, [A#] then I hit the [A] wall.
[C#m] No place to [E] turn, no [A#] place at [A] all.
I [F#] pick a number [A] between [B] a one [D] and two [C#m] and I ask [C] myself what would [E] Julius [A#] Caesar do?
[A] I'll bring someone to life, more ways than one.
Don't matter how long it takes, it'll be done when [C#m] it's done.
[B] [A#]
[A] [C#m]
[E] [A#]
[A] [C#m] I'm going to make you play the [B] piano [A#] like a Leon [A] Russell, [C#m] like [E] Liberace, like Saint [A#] John the
[A] [F#] Apostle.
I'll play every [A] number that I [B] can play.
[D] [C#m] I'll see [B] you, baby, [A#] on Judgment [A] Day.
[C#m] After [E] midnight, [A#] if you still want to [A] meet, I'll be [C#m] at the Black Horse [E] Diamond [A#] on Armageddon [A] Street.
[F#] Two doors [A] down, [B] not far [D] to walk.
[C#m] I'll hear [C] your footsteps, [E] you won't have [A#] to talk.
[A] I'll bring someone to life, balance the scales.
I'm not going to get involved in the insignificant [C#] details.
[C#m]
[A#] [A]
[C#m] [E]
[A#] [A]
[C#m] You can bring it to Saint Peter, [A#] you can bring it to [A] Jerome.
[C#m] You can bring it all [E] the way over, [A#] bring it all the way [A] home.
[F#] Bring it to the [A] corner [B] where the children [D] play.
[C#m] You can bring it [C] to me on [E] a silver [A#] tray.
I'll [A] bring someone to life, spare no expense.
Do it with decency and [C#m] common sense.

[A] [C#m]
[E] [A#]
[A] [C#m] Can you tell me what it [E] means to [A#] be or not to [A] be?
[C#m] You won't [B] get away with [A#] fooling me.
[A] [F#] Can you help me [A] walk [B] that good-luck [D] mile?
[C#m] Can you give me the [C] blessings of [E] your smile?
[A#] I'll [A] bring someone to life, use all of my powers.
Do it in the dark, in the wee [C#m] small hours.
[B]
[A#] [A]
[C#m] [B]
[A#] [A]
[C#m] I can [B] see the history [A#] of the whole human [A] race.
[C#m] It's all right [B] there, [F#] it's carved into [A] your face.
[F#] Should I break it [A] all down?
[B] Should I fall on my [D] knees?
[C#m] Is the light at the end of the [A#] tunnel?
Can you tell me [A] please?
[C#m] Stand over [B] there by the [A#] cypress tree, [A] where the [C#m] Trojan women and [E] children are sold into [A#] slavery.
[A]
[F#] Long before [A] the first
[B] crusade, [D] way [C#m] back before [E] England or [A#] America [A] were made.
[C#m] Step right [B] in [A#] to the burning [A] hell, where [C#m] some of the best [B] known enemies [A#] of mankind [A] dwell.
[F#] Mr.
Freud with his [A] dreams, [B] Mr.
Marx with his [D] axe.
See [C#m] the rawhide [B] lass rip the [A#] skin from their [A] backs.
[C#m] Got the [E] right spirit, [A#] you can feel it, you can [A] hear it.
[C#m] You've got what they [E] call the [A#] immortal [A] spirit.
You [F#] can feel it all [A] night, you [B] can feel it in the [D] morn.
[C#m]
It creeps in your body [A#] the day you [A] are born.
[C#m]
One strike [E] of lightning [A#] is all that [A] I need.
[C#m] And a blast of [E] electricity [A#] that runs on [A] top speed.
[F#] Show me [A] your ribs, [B] I'll stick in the [D] knife.
[C#m]
Gonna jumpstart [C] my creation [E] to [A#] life.
I [A] wanna bring someone to life.
Turn back the years.
Do it with laughter and do it [C#m] with tears.
