(CP1)
Mystic demons fly
All about the sk
With memories of a clown
The saddest show in town

(CP1)
When I was seventeen
Me mother said to me
Be careful what you touch
You shouldn`t take so much

(CP2)
I blew my mind
She was so kind
I could have cried

B B B B A G# <--Chord Progression 3 (CP3)
In my mind
B B B B A G#
I had to find
B B B B A G#
A kind of new way
B B B B A G#
Of being oh so cool
B B B B A G#
Like a blue blooded
B B B B A G#
Well studded
B B B B A G#
English fool

(Solo)

(CP1)
Speak about the past
Times are changing fast
Once I was so weak
I couldn`t even speak

(CP1)
Shaking put a curse
Nothing could be worse
Walking through the door
Who could ask for more

(CP2)
Now I`m free
And I can see
That I am me

(CP1)
Spread the word around
The rat is leaving town
The message is a song
The misery is gone

(CP1)
Shaking out a curse
Nothing could be worse
Walking through the door
Who could ask for more

(CP2)
Now I`m free
And I can see
That I am me

Please stay away
