[Am] [Bm]
[G#m] [Am]
[Bm] [E]
I've always been a sucker [G] for [G#m]
[Am] [B]
[G#] mystery.
[Am] So I should have left [Bm] and turned to the right.
Not that [Am] the answers are in sight.
So the man escaped, he'd run us all at [G#m] twice.
And we can't even get [E] paradise.
[Am] And a priest came [B] up to me and touched my face.
[G#] The terrible things that's [Am] around
[Bm] this place.
[Am]
No demon, no man has [Bm] got a [E] clue.
Should be [E] some alien turned that light for you.
Cause [Am] I've always been a [B] sucker for mystery.
I've always been a sucker for [Am] mystery.
There's a little boy walking up the stairs.
To a dark hallway that leads nowhere.
He comes to a door that he's afraid to knock.
[G#] He sneaks down low [Am] and peers through the lock.
And there's a door there [Bm] standing with a glistening [E] knife.
And he's [Am] snooping over something that has no life.
He snipes through it and he's about to turn it away.
He sways [Am] and he voices the Christmas day.
He's always been a sucker [B] for mystery.
[G#] And he's always [Em] been.
[A]
[B]
[Am] [F#]
[E] [Am] I don't wanna say goodbye.
[E] Want to [Am] give it one more try.
[E]
[Am] I don't wanna say [F#] goodbye.
[E] Want to give [Am] it one more try.
So many hells [B] I've wandered on.
So many hells I'm on.
And [Am] I'm never really laughing at you.
And I'm a jester.
I [Bm] really know where to go.
[E] And I'm stuck with you.
You [Am] just keep me on the hook.
And I'm out for the world.
[B] But I got nothing to say.
And I'm a sitting in the front of the [Am] TV set all day.
I'm scared to move.
I see [B] the world and I'm [E] stuck.
My feet won't move.
[Am] And that ain't enough.
[A] I'm a sucker for mystery.
[B] [E]
[C] See [Am] you're such an angry [E] face.
As you look in the eyes.
[Am] They make you wanna cry.
There's a time and a place for [Bm] everything.
[E] There's a time and a place [Am] for everything.
And it doesn't seem fair [B] that it cares if someone else [E] is.
Honestly don't come [Am] close to mine.
Cause there's a time and a place [B] for everything.
There's a time and a place [A] for [Am] everything.
So we packed our bags and went [Bm] back to the hotel.
[Am] Back to move us while we're in the living hell.
The cellulitis.
The cellulitis.
The cellulitis is.
The four o'clock and a half.
Such terrible things [B] happen round this place.
Such terrible things happen round this place.
Such terrible things happen round this place.
[G#m] And people disappear without a trace.
And I've always been a [B] sucker for mystery.
And I've [Am] always been.
[F#] [Am]
The man [B] in trees.
He's the most.
He's the [G#] one that makes [Am] men give up hope.
The pride and the suffering.
[F#] The little [E] things.
That might give him meaning.
[Am] Or even a hint.
Oh I'm gonna be [Bm] a man.
I have hope.
[G#m] When he doesn't even reach [Am] his optimism.
I.
I.
[E] [Am]
[Bm] [E] Wanna give [Am] it one more try.
[B]
I.
[E] [Am] I wanna.
Once [Bm] again.
[E] I do think [Am] that it's not too late.
[Bm] [E]
[Am] He knows that I.
[F#]
I wanna start [Am] all over again.
I.
[B]
