All I did was put it as a chord version. I'm just going to write the main chord,
but pay attention to how they are played.This is a fairly simple song, and it's easy to pick up.

E: 022100
F#m: 044200

E MajorE F# minorF#m
What a night for a dance, you know I'm a dancing machine
AbmAbm F# minorF#m
With a fire in my bones and the sweet taste of kerosene
E MajorE F# minorF#m
I get lost in the night so high I don't want to come down
AbmAbm F# minorF#m
To face the loss of the good thing that I've found
E MajorE F# minorF#m AbmAbm F# minorF#m
E MajorE F# minorF#m
In the dark of the night I could hear you calling my name
AbmAbm F# minorF#m
With the hardest of hearts I still feel full of pain
E MajorE F# minorF#m
So I drink and I smoke and I ask you if you're ever around
AbmAbm F# minorF#m
Even though it was me who drove us right in the ground
A augmentedA
See the time we shared it was precious to me
A augmentedA BB E MajorE
But all the while I was dreaming of revelry
(E MajorE) F# minorF#m AbmAbm F# minorF#m
E MajorE F# minorF#m
Born to run, baby run like a stream down a mountainside
AbmAbm F# minorF#m
With the wind in my back I don't ever even bat an eye
E MajorE F# minorF#m
Just know it was you all along who had a hold of my heart
AbmAbm F# minorF#m
But the demon and me were the best of friends from the start
A augmentedA
So the time we shared it was precious to me
A augmentedA BB E MajorE F# minorF#m AbmAbm F# minorF#m
All the while I was dreaming of revelry
(F# minorF#m) E MajorE
Dreaming of revelry
(E MajorE) F# minorF#m AbmAbm F# minorF#m
E MajorE F# minorF#m
And I told myself boy away you go, it rained so hard it felt like snow
AbmAbm F# minorF#m
Everything came tumbling down on me
E MajorE F# minorF#m
In the back of the woods in the dark of the night
AbmAbm F# minorF#m
Paleness of the old moonlight everything just felt so incomplete
(F# minorF#m) E MajorE F# minorF#m
Dreaming of revelry
(F# minorF#m) AbmAbm F# minorF#m
Dreaming of revelry
(F# minorF#m) E MajorE F# minorF#m
Dreaming of revelry
(F# minorF#m) AbmAbm F# minorF#m
Dreaming of revelry
End with a single strum on that last F#m. Enjoy the tab! Just an FYI, when you see E MajorE and then (E MajorE),
