[Verse]
G C G
When I think of those East End lights
C
Muggy nights
G/B F/A C
The curtains drawn in the little room down stairs
F G
Prima Donna lord you really should have been there
F G C
Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
Cm7
And it's one more beer
A7
And I don't hear you anymore
C
We've all gone crazy lately
A/C# G/D
My friends out there rolling round the basement floor
D
[Chorus]
C G/B Am G/B
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear ( sugar bea -ea
C G/B Am
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G/B C G/B
You nearly had me roped and tied
C A7/C#
Altar-bound, hypnotized
G/D
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
A7
You're a butterfly
C
And butterflies are free to fly
A7/C# G/D B7 C
Fly away, high away bye bye
G/B Am G F

[Verse]
G C G
I never realized the passing hours
C
Of evening showers
G/B F/A C
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dre-eams
F G
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
F G C
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen
Cm7
It's four o'clock in the morning
A7
Damn it listen to me good
C
I'm sleeping with myself tonight
A/C# [x42020] G/D
Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive
D
Ah ah ah ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ahhhh
[Chorus]
C G/B Am G/B
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear ( sugar bea -ea
C G/B Am
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G/B C G/B
You nearly had me roped and tied
C A7/C#
Altar-bound, hypnotized
G/D
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
A7
You're a butterfly
C
And butterflies are free to fly

Fly away, high away bye bye

[Bridge]
Am G/B
And I would have walked head on into the deep end the river
E11
Clinging to your stocks and bonds
C
Paying your H.P. demands forever
Am G/B
They're coming in the morning with a truck to take me home
E11 C
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
E11 C
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
E11
Someone saved my life tonight
C A7/C#
So save your strength and run the field you play alone
[Chorus]
C G/B Am G/B
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear ( sugar bea -ea
C G/B Am
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
G/B C G/B
You nearly had me roped and tied
