[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] When [Db] I think of [Ab] those East End [Db] lights, [Ab] muggy nights, the curtains [Gb] drawn in the little [Db] room downstairs
[Ebm] Free Madonna, [Ab] Lord, you really should have been [Ebm] there, sitting like a [Ab] princess perched in [Db] her electric chair
[Dbm] And this one more beer, I don't [Bb] need you anymore
[Db] We've all gone madly, [Bb] my friend, rolling [Ab] round the basement floor
[Eb] Someone [Db] [Ab] saved my life [Bbm] tonight, sugar [Ab] babe
[Db] [Ab] Almost happened to [Bbm] me, didn't you dear?
[Ab] You [Db] nearly had me roped and [Ab] tied
[Db] [Bb] Hypnotized with [Ab] freedom, whispered in my ear
[Fm] You're a butterfly, [Db] and butterflies need to fly
[Bb] Fly away, [Ab] hide away
[C] [Db] [Ab] [Bbm]
[Db] [Gb] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab] Never [Db] realized the [Ab] passing [Db] hours of evening [Ab] showers, slip news hanging [Gb] in my darkest [Db]
dreams
[Ebm] I'm strangled by a [Ab] haunted social scene, [Ebm] just a pawn [Ab] I played by a [Db] dominating queen
It's [Dbm]
four o'clock in the morning, [Bb] listen to it go
I'm [Db]
sleeping with myself, [Bb] second time, thank God my [Ab] music's still alive
[Eb] Someone [Db]
[Ab] saved my life [Bbm] tonight, sugar babe
[Db] Almost [Ab] happened to me, [Bbm] didn't you dear?
[Ab] You nearly [Db] had me roped [Ab] and tied
[Db] [Bb] Hypnotized [Ab] with freedom, whispered in my ear
[Fm] You're a butterfly,
[Db] and butterflies need to fly
[Bb] Fly away,
[Ab] hide [C] away
[Db] [Ab]
[Bbm] [Db] [Gb]
[Ab] [Db]
[Ab] [Db]
[Bbm] And I would have walked head [Ab] on into the deep end of a river
[Cm] Lending to your stocks and bonds, [Db] paying your eight feet in mines forever
[Bbm] Coming down [Ab] another truck to take me home
[Eb] Someone saved my life [Db] tonight
Someone saved
[Eb] Someone saved my life [Db] tonight
Someone saved my life
[Eb] Someone saved my life [Db] tonight
So set your strength, and [Bb] you can lay in love
[Db] [Ab] Someone saved [Bbm] my life tonight, sugar babe
[Db] Didn't [Ab]
[Bbm] you dear?
[Db] You nearly had me roped [Ab] and tied
[Db] [Bb] Hypnotized [Ab] with freedom, whispered in my ear
[Fm] You're a butterfly, [Db] and butterflies need to fly
[Bb] Fly away, [Ab] hide away
Someone [Cm] [Db] [Ab] [Bbm]
[Gb] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab] saved
Someone [Db] saved my life
Someone saved my life
[Ab] Someone [Db] saved my life
Someone saved my my life [Ab] Someone Someone
[Db] Someone
[Ab] [Db]
Someone [Ab] Someone
Someone Someone Someone
