[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] When I think of [Db] those East [Ab] End [Db] lights, muggy nights, [Ab] the curtains drawn [Gb] in the little room [Db] downstairs
Free [Ebm] Madonna, Lord, you [Ab] really should have been there, [Ebm] sitting like a princess [Ab] perched in her [Db] electric chair
And [Dbm] this one more beer, and I don't hear [Bb] you anymore
[Db] We've all gone crazy, [Bb] my friends out there, rolling round [Ab] the basement floor
[Eb]
Someone [Db] [Ab] saved my life [Bbm] tonight, sugar bear
[Ab] You were [Db] [Ab] hooking me, [Bbm] didn't you dear?
[Ab] You [Db] nearly had me roped [Ab] and tied
[Db]
[Bb] Hypnotized [Ab] with freedom, whispered in my ear
[Fm] You're a butterfly, [Db] and a butterfly, butterfly, [Bb]
[Ab] fly away
[C] [Db]
[Ab] [Bbm] [Ab] [Gb]
[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] I never [Db] realized the [Ab] passing [Db] hours of evening [Ab] showers, slip news [Gb] hanging in my [Db] darkest dreams
[Ebm] I'm strung by a [Ab] haunted social scene, [Ebm] just a [Ab] pawn I played by a [Db] dominating queen
[Dbm] It's four o'clock in the [Db] morning, damn it, [Bb] listen to me ghoul
I'm [Db] sleeping with [Bb] a second time, my music's [Ab] still alive
[Eb] [Db] Someone saved [Ab] my life tonight, [Bbm] sugar bear
[Ab] You [Db] [Ab] were hooking me, [Bbm] didn't you dear?
[Ab] You [Db] nearly had me roped [Ab] and tied
[Db] [Bb] [Ab] Hypnotized with freedom, whispered in my [Fm] ear
You're a butterfly, [Db] and a butterfly, butterfly, [Bb] fly away
[Ab]
[C] And [Db] [Ab] I [Bbm]
[Db] [Gb] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab]
[Db] [Bbm] would have walked head on [Ab] into the deep end of a river
[Cm] Clinging to your stocks and bonds, paying [Db] your eight speedy miles forever
[Bbm] Coming in another [Ab] truck to take me home
[Eb] Someone saved my life tonight, [Db] [Eb]
[Db] sugar [Eb]
[Db] bear
[Bb]
[Fm] [Db] You were [Ab] hooking [Bbm] me, [Ab] [Db] [Ab] [Bbm] didn't you dear?
