Verse 2:
     DmDm          G+G          DmDm         G+G
There's a thin white cold new moon and the snow is coming down
     DmDm          G+G          DmDm         G+G
And the neon bright Tokyo lights flicker through the crowd
     DmDm          G+G          DmDm         G+G
I've been drifting around for hours and I'm lost and I am tired
     DmDm          G+G              DmDm         G+G
When a whisper in my ear  insatiable breathes  "why don't you follow me inside?"

Her hair is black, the bed is white

Is always young, always young
DmDm          G+G
The night is ... always young

Yeah I've been seeing them strip to the bone in the mirror on the wall
  DmDm         G+G              DmDm         G+G
Seeing her swallow him whole like it's not me at all
    DmDm          G+G             DmDm        G+G
She holds out her hands and I follow her down to my knees
     DmDm         G+G         DmDm       G+G
And the sucking inside insatiable smiles "you will forget yourself in me"

     DmDm         G+G       DmDm         G+G
And in the blood red Tokyo bed I watch me coming down
     DmDm       G+G           DmDm       G+G
She pulled him down for hours deeper than I've ever been
     DmDm          G+G                  DmDm         G+G

     DmDm          G+G              DmDm         G+G
