[Intro]
G/D C G/D C
[Verse 1]
G/DWhen I think of those CEast End Glights, Cmuggy nights
The G/Bcurtains drawn in the F/Alittle room downC/Gstairs
FPrima Donna lord you really Gshould have been there
FSitting like a princess Gperched in her eleCctric chair
And it's Cm7one more beer and I don't hear you A6anymore
We've Call gone crazy lately
My A/C#friends out there rolling round the G/Dbasement floor D7
[Chorus 1]
CAnd someone saved my G/Blife tonight Am7sugar bear (Sugar bear)
CYou almost had your G/Bhooks in me Am7didn't you dear
You G/Bnearly Chad me roped and G/Btied
CAltar-bound, A7/C#hypnotized
Sweet G/Dfreedom whispered in my ear
You're a A6/Ebutterfly
And Cbutterflies are free to fly
A7/C#Fly away
G/DHigh away
BBye Cbye
(OG/Boh) Am7 G F
[Piano riff]
G/D C G/D C
[Verse 2]
G/DI never realized the Cpassing Ghours of Cevening showers
A G/Bslip noose hanging F/Ain my darkest C/Gdreams
FI'm strangled by your haunted Gsocial scene
FJust a pawn out-pGlayed by a domiCnating queen
It's Cm7four o'clock in the morning
Damn it! A6Listen to me good
I'm Csleeping with myself tonight
A/C#Saved in time, thank God my music's G/Dstill alive D7(Oh!)
[Chorus 2]
CAnd someone saved my G/Blife tonight Am7sugar bear (Sugar bear)
CYou almost had your G/Bhooks in me Am7didn't you dear
You G/Bnearly Chad me roped and G/Btied
CAltar-bound, A7/C#hypnotized
Sweet G/Dfreedom whispered in my ear
You're a A6/Ebutterfly
And Cbutterflies are free to fly
A7/C#Fly away
G/DHigh away
BBye Cbye

[Piano riff]
G/D C G/D C
[Bridge]
A7And I would have walked head on
Into the G/Bdeep end of the river
EmClinging to your stocks and bonds
Paying your C/GH.P. demands forever
Am7They're coming in the morning with a G/Btruck to take me home
EmSomeone saved my life tonight
C/GSomeone saved my life tonight
EmSomeone saved my life tonight
C/GSomeone saved my life tonight
EmSomeone saved my life tonight
So C/Gsave your strength and run the field you A7play alone
[Chorus 3]
CAnd someone saved my G/Blife tonight Am7sugar bear (Sugar bear)
CYou almost had your G/Bhooks in me Am7didn't you dear
You G/Bnearly Chad me roped and G/Btied
CAltar-bound, A7/C#hypnotized
Sweet G/Dfreedom whispered in my ear
You're a A6/Ebutterfly
And Cbutterflies are free to fly
A7/C#Fly away
G/DHigh away
BBye Cbye
