🎸 Verse :

Am           G             C
Quietly I am screaming for help
F               Dm       G
I calm down and steady myself
   Am                          G       C       Fm
Collapse to the ground, when I realize I can't breathe
              Dm        G
Could this be happening?
                          Am
All the walls are closing in on me
                       G           C
And confusion makes it hard to see
F                                   Dm
Still my pounding heart is bleeding for you
    G          Am
And I start to sweat, sweat, sweat, sweat
         G            C
(Why the hell am I here)
           F
I start to sweat, sweat, sweat, sweat
        Dm                 G
(Have I succumbed to fear)


🎸 Chorus:

Am       F            C
Why am I trying the undying?
            E               G
(A ghost of such elegance!)
Am          F            C
Oh why am I racing to be facing
             E                        G
(A vision of something so perfect!)
F                                Am
I am willing to give whatever it takes
                              F
To find forgiveness for my mistakes
                       G
So I'm going to take a chance
                 E/G#
And invite the unknown to a deadly dance


🎸 Verse 2:

Am     G    C
I have laid eyes on you
F                                  Dm         G
And yet it does not seem as if the earth moved
               Am
And I start to sweat, sweat, sweat, sweat
   G               C
(I will have you tonight!)
           F
I start to sweat, sweat, sweat, sweat
     Dm             G
(You will be mine tonight!)

Am       F            C

(A ghost of such elegance!)
Am          F            C
Oh why am I racing to be facing
             E                        G
(A vision of something so perfect!)
F                                Am
I am willing to give whatever it takes
                              F
To find forgiveness for my mistakes
                       G
So I'm going to take a chance
                 E/G#              Am
And invite the unknown to a deadly dance
