Verse 1:
      D MajorD
It’s like a magic
      A augmentedA
I've got to have it
     Bb majorBb
Whatever lies out of reach of me
     D MajorD
And to despise it
     A augmentedA
Just magnifies it
   Bb majorBb
Can't obliterate the need
B minorBm
Bad news disguised
             E minorEm
Dressed and painted with lies (but I just can't see)
   B minorBm
When truth is concealed
        E minorEm
How the danger appeals but my conscience sees

You're like a black cat
      A augmentedA
Who always knows that

It's life is a mystery
      D MajorD
You mesmerise me
          A augmentedA
And then you hypnotise me
     Bb majorBb
Till obsession devours me
    B minorBm
You're silky words soothe me as they move me
E minorEm
To ecstasy
B minorBm
And just as I'm falling
          E minorEm
I hear a voice calling don't believe
